This is a quite long paper that I separated from [Arvix] 4th week, Feb. 2008:
[astro-ph:0802.3916] P. Carvalho, G. Rocha, & M.P.Hobso
A fast Bayesian approach to discrete object detection in astronomical datasets – PowellSnakes I
As the title suggests, it describes Bayesian source detection and provides me a chance to learn the foundation of source detection in astronomy. Continue reading ‘[ArXiv] A fast Bayesian object detection’ »
