... Meta Index / Home Page / Description The wavelet detection algorithm itself does not use any separate background estimate. ... For the parameter I choose to use a value twice the size of the wavelet scale under investigation (so for every scale a different background map is generated). After one iteration the input for the background estimate is the original image minus the sources, detected at scales smaller or equal to the wavelet scale under investigation. ...

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. ...

... 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. ...

... The first of the equations defines the position of the spectral orders, m , in the raw image, while the second equation gives, for each order, the dispersion relation in one dimension. ... where the coefficients are computed using least squares techniques on a grid , i.e. sample number and line number of points located within the spectral orders of the image. These points in the grid are found automatically by an order--following algorithm, normally using the FLAT or STD image. ...

. There are several different shells available for Unix; the most popular are described here. You can use any one of these shells if they are available on your system. And you can switch between the different shells once you have found out if they are available. Bourne shell (sh) . C shell (csh) . TC shell (tcsh) . Korn shell (ksh) . Bourne Again SHell (bash) .

... SFIT is a general-purpose code designed to optimize theoretical stellar spectra to an observed spectrum. ... While the programme expects input from "stdio", it is more natural to save commands in a file (eg "sfit_input") and run the code simply by . ... If the spectra to be fitted have a filename "star_spectrum", then the best fit spectrum will be written out, together with the renormalized input spectrum, to a file called "star_spectrum.fit". ... sets up model spectrum grid (and for 2nd star) . ...

Describes how spatial region boundaries are handled. The golden rule for spatial region filtering was first enunciated by Leon VanSpeybroeck in 1986: . ... With this in mind, the rules for determining whether a boundary image pixel or table row are assigned to a region are defined below. For image filtering, pixels whose center is inside the boundary are included. ... That is, an row is inside the boundary without regard to its integerized pixel value. ...

... Up: Algorithms . ... Non-linear and non-parametric algorithms for data averaging, smoothing and clipping in the RATAN-600 flexible astronomical data processing system are proposed. Algorithms are based on robust methods and non-linear filters using an iterative approach to smoothing and clipping. ...
