Maximum Entropy Method for Reconstruction of the Cmb Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a new approach for the accurate reconstruction of cosmic microwave background distributions from observations containing in addition to the primary fluctuations the radiation from unresolved extragalactic point sources and pixel noise. The approach uses some effective realizations of the well-known maximum entropy method and principally takes into account a priori information about finiteness and spherical symmetry of the power spectrum of the CMB satisfying the Gaussian statistics.

Maximum-entropy image reconstruction using wavelets
Wavelet functions allow the sparse and efficient representation of a signal at different scales. Recently the application of wavelets to the denoising of maps of cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations has been proposed. The maximum-entropy method (MEM) is also often used for enhancing astronomical images and has been applied to CMB data. In this paper, we give a systematic discussion of...
متن کاملImage reconstruction by conditional entropy maximisation for PET system - Vision, Image and Signal Processing, IEE Proceedings-
The authors show that the conditional entropy maximisation algorithm is a generalised version of the maximum likelihood algorithm for positron emission tomography (PET). Promising properties of the conditional entropy maximisation algorithm are as follows: an assumption is made that the entropy of the information content of the data should be maximised; it is a consistent way of selecting an im...
متن کاملBayesian cross-entropy reconstruction of complex images.
BaJkova's generalized maximum entropy method for reconstruction of complex signals is further generalized through the use of Kullback-Leibler cross entropy. This permits apriori information in the form of bias functions to be inserted into the algorithm, with resulting benefits to reconstruction quality. Also, the cross-entropy term is imbedded within an overall maximum aposteriori probability ...
متن کاملA New Method for Root Detection in Minirhizotron Images: Hypothesis Testing Based on Entropy-Based Geometric Level Set Decision
In this paper a new method is introduced for root detection in minirhizotron images for root investigation. In this method firstly a hypothesis testing framework is defined to separate roots from background and noise. Then the correct roots are extracted by using an entropy-based geometric level set decision function. Performance of the proposed method is evaluated on real captured images in tw...
متن کاملForeground separation using a flexible maximum-entropy algorithm: an application to COBE data
A flexible maximum-entropy component separation algorithm is presented that accommodates anisotropic noise, incomplete sky-coverage and uncertainties in the spectral parameters of foregrounds. The capabilities of the method are determined by first applying it to simulated spherical microwave data sets emulating the COBE-DMR, COBE-DIRBE and Haslam surveys. Using these simulations we find that is...
