We present new techniques to perform adaptive spatial binning of Integral-Field Spectroscopic (IFS) data to reach a chosen constant signal-to-noise ratio per bin. These methods are required for the proper analysis of IFS observations, but…

We review the concepts of the Voronoi binning technique (Cappellari & Copin 2003), which optimally solves the problem of preserving the maximum spatial resolution of general two-dimensional data, given a constraint on the minimum…

We present a technique to adaptively bin sparse X-ray data using weighted Voronoi tesselations (WVTs). WVT binning is a generalisation of Cappellari & Copin's (2001) Voronoi binning algorithm, developed for integral field spectroscopy. WVT…

Adaptive binning is a crucial step in the analysis of large astronomical datasets, such as those from integral-field spectroscopy, to ensure a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for reliable model fitting. However, the widely used…

We present a simple method for adaptively binning the pixels in an image. The algorithm groups pixels into bins of size such that the fractional error on the photon count in a bin is less than or equal to a threshold value, and the size of…

Pixels in image sensors have progressively become smaller, driven by the goal of producing higher-resolution imagery. However, ceteris paribus, a smaller pixel accumulates less light, making image quality worse. This interplay of…

We propose and explore the potential of a method to extract high signal-to-noise (S/N) integrated spectra related to physical and/or morphological regions on a 2-dimensional field using Integral Field Spectroscopy (IFS) observations by…

We have developed a novel method of determining 2D radial density profiles for astronomical systems of discrete objects using Voronoi tessellations. This Voronoi-based method was tested against the standard annulus-based method on 5…

We present a new technique for choosing spatial regions for X-ray spectroscopy, called "contour binning". The method chooses regions by following contours on a smoothed image of the object. In addition we re-explore a simple method for…

Given a countable set of points in a continuous space, Voronoi tessellation is an intuitive way of partitioning the space according to the distance to the individual points. As a powerful approach to obtain structural information, it has a…

The Voronoi tessellation is a natural way of space segmentation, which has many applications in various fields of science and technology, as well as in social sciences and visual art. The varieties of the Voronoi tessellation methods are…

We use a sample of 350 star-forming galaxies at $1.25<z<2.66$ from the MOSFIRE Deep Evolution Field survey to demonstrate an improved Voronoi binning technique that we use to study the properties of resolved stellar populations in $z\sim2$…

A spectroscopic technique employing an iodine absorption cell (I_2) to superimpose a reference spectrum onto a stellar spectrum is currently the most widely adopted approach to obtain precision radial velocities of solar-type stars. It has…

Spectral imaging enables spatially-resolved identification of materials in remote sensing, biomedicine, and astronomy. However, acquisition times require balancing spectral and spatial resolution with signal-to-noise. Hyperspectral imaging…

Achieving accurate and robust global situational awareness of a complex time-evolving field from a limited number of sensors has been a longstanding challenge. This reconstruction problem is especially difficult when sensors are sparsely…

The application of Voronoi and Delaunay tessellation based methods for reconstructing continuous fields from discretely sampled data sets is discussed. The succesfull operation as ``multidimensional interpolation'' method is corroborated…

Image signals typically are defined on a rectangular two-dimensional grid. However, there exist scenarios where this is not fulfilled and where the image information only is available for a non-regular subset of pixel position. For…

Digital co-addition of astronomical images is a common technique for increasing signal-to-noise and image depth. A modification of this simple technique has been applied to the detection of minor bodies in the Solar System: first stationary…

The core challenge of hyperspectral image denoising is striking the right balance between data fidelity and noise prior modeling. Most existing methods place too much emphasis on the intrinsic priors of the image while overlooking diverse…

A new procedure aiming at folding a powder diffraction 2-D into a 1-D scan is presented. The technique consists of three steps: tracking the beam centre by means of a Simulated Annealing (SA) of the diffraction rings along the same axis,…
