The process of determining the number and characteristics of sources in astronomical images is so fundamental to a large range of astronomical problems that it is perhaps surprising that no standard procedure has ever been defined that has well understood properties with a high degree of statistical rigour on completeness and reliability. ... In this analysis we present results from testing such algorithms as implemented in the SExtractor, Selavy (Duchamp), and sfind tools on simulated data. ...
