Automatic Quality Control for Agricultural Field Trials -- Detection of Nonstationarity in Grid-indexed Data

Karen Wolf, Pierre Fernique, Hans-Peter Piepho

A common assumption in the spatial analysis of agricultural field trials is stationarity. In practice, however, this assumption is often violated due to unaccounted field effects.…

Gaia Focused Product Release: Sources from Service Interface Function image analysis -- Half a million new sources in omega Centauri

Gaia Collaboration, K. Weingrill, A. Mints +400

Gaia's readout window strategy is challenged by very dense fields in the sky. Therefore, in addition to standard Gaia observations, full Sky Mapper (SM) images were recorded for ni…
