... Suppose we have two images of the same part of the sky, taken by the same instrument, in the same energy band and containing the same fraction of background contribution. ... These two scenarios may be thought of as extreme cases of the more general procedure of forming a weighted sum of the two images. Indeed we may expect that, for the general case where an image is formed as the weighted sum of contributory images , . ...

This diagram shows the six superimposed "layers" of the CSS table model. This diagram illustrates the algorithm for calculating a cell's final background. ... The diagram shows how, looking down on the six rectangles, one may compute the background color of each cell. ... A cell without a background color in the top layer is depicted as a "window" onto the lower layers, which give its final background color. ...

... We employ Bayesian inference for the joint estimation of sources and background on ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) data. ... Background maps were estimated in a single step together with the detection of sources without pixel censoring. ... The source probability is evaluated for single pixels as well as for pixel domains to enhance source detection of weak and extended sources. ... The spline fits the background component whereas count enhancements classify pixel (domains) with source contributions. ...

... The procedure of radiometer signal integration can be considered as a sort of reducing dimension of the initial sampling space, where the samples are the result of analog-to-digital conversion. ... The probability distribution of the signal and spikes is completely known. ... The quality of the considered algorithm could be also illustrated by Figure 2 . ... One could see the considered adaptive algorithm is preferable even by low degree of compression, because all spikes have been depressed. ...
