A Model Estimator for Noisy Compact Emission Recovery in Radio Synthesis Imaging
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Reconstruction of a noisy compact emission must consider not only the point-spread function but also the effect of noise. However, the traditional threshold method in widely-used CLEAN-based algorithms finds it difficult to effectively prevent noise in ...

An Application of Hilbert-Huang Transform on the Non-Stationary Astronomical Time Series: The Superorbital Modulation of SMC X-1 [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2013 We present the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) analysis on the quasi-periodic modulation of SMC X-1. SMC X-1, consisting of a neutron star and a massive companion, exhibits superorbital modulation with a period varying between ~40 d and ~65 d. We applied
