Toward automated detection of light echoes in synoptic surveys: considerations on the application of the Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
Xiaolong Li, Federica B. Bianco, Gregory Dobler +7
Light Echoes (LEs) are the reflections of astrophysical transients off of interstellar dust. They are fascinating astronomical phenomena that enable studies of the scattering dust…
Patterns of Urban Foot Traffic Dynamics
Gregory Dobler, Jordan Vani, Trang Tran Linh Dam
Using publicly available traffic camera data in New York City, we quantify time-dependent patterns in aggregate pedestrian foot traffic. These patterns exhibit repeatable diurnal b…
The Urban Observatory: a Multi-Modal Imaging Platform for the Study of Dynamics in Complex Urban Systems
Gregory Dobler, Federica B. Bianco, Mohit S. Sharma +5
We describe an "Urban Observatory" facility designed for the study of complex urban systems via persistent, synoptic, and granular imaging of dynamical processes in cities. An init…
TrackNet: Simultaneous Object Detection and Tracking and Its Application in Traffic Video Analysis
Chenge Li, Gregory Dobler, Xin Feng +1
Object detection and object tracking are usually treated as two separate processes. Significant progress has been made for object detection in 2D images using deep learning network…
Strong Lens Time Delay Challenge: II. Results of TDC1
Kai Liao, Tommaso Treu, Phil Marshall +23
We present the results of the first strong lens time delay challenge. The motivation, experimental design, and entry level challenge are described in a companion paper. This paper…
Strong Lens Time Delay Challenge: I. Experimental Design
Gregory Dobler, Christopher Fassnacht, Tommaso Treu +5
The time delays between point-like images in gravitational lens systems can be used to measure cosmological parameters. The number of lenses with measured time delays is growing ra…
