Year: 2006 Language: english Author: Starck J., Murtagh F. Publisher: Springer Edition: 2 ISBN: 3540428852, 9783540428855 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 303 Description: "This book is an authoritative and thorough account of numerous mathematical techniques used by research astronomers and I can strongly recommend it for those purposes." (C.R. Kitchin, Astronomy Now, Oct. 2003) "The book addresses not only students and professional astronomers and astrophysicists, but also serious amateur astronomers and specialists in earth observation, medical imaging, and data mining." (Europe & Astronomy, 905, 2003) "The phenomenal amounts of data produced by modern telescopes require powerful tools to extract whatever valuable nuggets of information they contain from the dross of unwanted signal and noise. Computer power available to reduce the data is barely sufficient to keep pace. This monograph is aimed at solving these problems by a variety of different methods. [...] The book includes a number of well-chosen illustrative examples, some based on real, and others on artificial data. It also has a substantial bibliography. However it is not a guide to the several excellent reduction packages currently available. Rather it is a thorough investigation of how astronomical images can be modelled and how the maximum information can be extracted from the noise, and for this it can be recommended." (The Observatory, 123/1174, 2003)
