... Recognition of Anomalous Events S. Monai 1,2 and F.Pasian 2 1 Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera Merate, Italy 2 Osservatorio Astronomico di Trieste, Italy Abstract. We present an original algorithm for the recognition of anomalous events in a CCD frame (i.e., cosmic hits, bad pixels etc.) ... Raw images, as read from a CCD, are often a#ected by some events which are revealed by anomalous pixel values, i.e., single saturated pixels or pixels at zero intensity (also named hot or bad pixels). ...
