... The degree of correlation between two parameters can visually be estimated by plotting them. Numerically this is expressed by the correlation coefficient : . ... When the correlation coefficient indicates a significant correlation, the functional relation is given by the regression line which is computed by least squares methods for normal distributions or maximum likelihood procedures (see Section ). ... Such transformation may also be used to make the variance of a variable homogenous. ...

The image plane was uniformly sampled at 11 points, 10 points inside the image and one point outside the right boundary of the image ( , , , and ). was then minimized for two cases: when and (greatly restricting the range of the PSF used for calculating ), and again for and (which maximizes the range of the PSF). ...

Next: Other deconvolution tasks Up: Image Deconvolution Previous: Computation . If you have used multi-frequency synthesis in the imaging stage, you will have to have considered a fly in the ointment - the flux density of the source will vary with frequency (as well as spatially). For detection and low dynamic-range work, mild spectral variation can generally be ignored. ... The Miriad deconvolution task mfclean can be used to avoid this distortion. ...

... We have assumed a constant in time star formation rate and the total number of stars in the Galaxy, , to be such that the total mass of the galaxy is ; assuming the Salpeter mass function   , we get . ... This number agrees with a standard estimation of the galactic star formation rate of order of per year. In each run of calculations, we trace the evolution of binaries with initial parameters randomly distributed according to the chosen initial laws. ...

... a major flood of the entire Upper Mississippi River basin which resulted in very wide spread agricultural and commercial damage. On August 10, an enormous plume of turbid river water was detected extending eastward from the Mississippi River delta region. River water discharged on the western side of the delta flowed eastward around the south side of the delta, joining additional river water discharged from passes on the south and east sides of the delta. ...

Next: Feature enhancement: local Up: No Title Previous: Feature enhancement: filtering . ... As a result, a common magnitude scale (contour lines on the maps above, or color scale on Fig.1) will poorly display the short-duration events in a signal. Normalizing each line of the map (fixed duration) so it has unit variance (in effect dividing the energy map by the mean energy spectrum) at each duration restores more details of small-scale activity (Fig. ...

Next: Introduction . ... A spike immunity method of digital integrating radiometer signals in the jamming environment is described. ... The purpose of the method is real-time signal processing, and the basic is an alternative selection of the least offset signal estimation using nonparametric "Nearest Neighbor" rule. ... The additive spike-like jam makes the "tails" of the distribution "heavier" which leads to different offsets for linear and rank mean estimation on the integrating interval. ...

... Using a simple 2-D Gaussian Point Spread Function (PSF) on a constant (flat) sky background, I derive a theoretical photometric and astrometric performance model for analytical and digital PSF-fitting stellar photometry. ... The photometric performance is maximized when either the effective background area or the effective-background-level measurement error is minimized. ... An important, but frequently ignored, noise source is the uncertainty of the measurement of the effective background level ( )...
