Next: A New Entropy Measure Based on Multiple Resolution and Noise Modeling . ... The entropy measurement has been proposed for image restoration several years ago in astronomy. ... The multiscale entropy has the advantage to introduce a noise modeling, and the concept of information at different level of resolution. ... We show in this paper that it can also be used for background fluctuations analysis. ... Five simulated images were created by adding 400, 200, 100, 50, 0 sources to a noisy image. ...

Extracting spectra from a large number of NICMOS grism images requires a convenient interactive tool which allows a user to manipulate direct/grism image pairs. ... NICMOSlook and Calnic-C are two programs that were designed to take advantage of the fact that the NICMOS grism mode typically consists of taking both a direct and a grism image. ...

... The analysis of NICMOS polarization images is aimed at determining the Stokes' Parameters, and from those the polarization angle and degree for each pixel. NICMOS Camera 1 and Camera 2 each contain three polarizers, whose principal axes of transmission are separated by 120 degrees. ... The images in the three filters need to be compared, in order to produce the Stokes' parameters. ... The Stokes parameters can then be combined to yield the polarized intensity, I p: . ...

... Early on, our interest in chirping analysis functions was motivated by a different kind of chirping phenomenon: chirping due to perspective. ... Our interest in radar, however, drew us toward processes that are more accurately analyzed by linear-FM chirplets. ... We have also constructed other chirplet transforms, such as a three-parameter Doppler chirplet representation that models a source producing a sinusoidal wave, while moving along a straight line (e.g. a train whistle). ...

Next: The root filesystem Up: Overview of the Directory Previous: Overview of the Directory . This chapter is loosely based on the Linux filesystem standard, FSSTND, version 1.2 (see the bibliography, [ Qui95 ]), which attempts to set a standard for how the directory tree in a Linux system is organized. ... This chapter does not explain all files in detail. ... The major parts are the root, /usr   , /var   , and /home   filesystems (see figure 2.1 ). ... Figure 2.1: Parts of a Unix directory tree. ...

A visual impression of the data used in the study. The relevant extra-galactic maps are represented as shells of increasing distance from Earth from left to right. ... After this are six shells containing maps of the millions of distant galaxies used in the study. These maps are produced using different telescopes in different wavelengths and are color-coded to show denser clumps of galaxies as red and less dense regions as blue. There are holes in the maps due to data quality cuts. ...

... PPTA timeline . ... List of projects . ... RedGW . ... One of the main goals of pulsar timing array projects is to limit the existence of a background of gravitational waves (GWs). Jenet et al. (2006) developed a method to determine such a limit if (and only if) the pulsar timing residuals were statistically white. In the paper we used data from six pulsars from the PPTA project to obtain a limit. The remaining pulsars were rejected because their timing residuals were not white. ...
