Survey of Object-Based Data Reduction Techniques in Observational Astronomy [PDF]
Open Physics, 2016 Dealing with astronomical observations represents one of the most challenging areas of big data analytics. Besides huge variety of data types, dynamics related to continuous data flow from multiple sources, handling enormous volumes of data is essential.

Adaptive data reduction workflows for astronomy: The ESO Data Processing System (EDPS) [PDF]
Astronomy and AstrophysicsContext. Astronomical data reduction is usually done via processing pipelines that consist of a series of individual processing steps that can be executed one at a time. These processing steps are then strung together into workflows and fed with data to address a particular processing goal.

Principles of the data reduction and first results of the fastscanning method for (sub)millimeter astronomy [PDF]
Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2002 Ground-based astronomical continuum observations at (sub)millimeter wavelengths are especially difficult, because the emission of the atmospheric water vapor is usually much stronger than any astronomical signal. We present here the principles of the data reduction and first results of a new observing method that accounts for the atmospheric emission ...

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 ...

The Dark Energy Camera Plane Survey 2 (DECaPS2): More Sky, Less Bias, and Better Uncertainties
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 Deep optical and near-infrared imaging of the entire Galactic plane is essential for understanding our Galaxy’s stars, gas, and dust. The second data release of the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) Plane Survey extends the five-band optical and near-infrared ...
