Exponential Family Trend Filtering on Lattices
Veeranjaneyulu Sadhanala, Robert Bassett, James Sharpnack +1
Trend filtering is a modern approach to nonparametric regression that is more adaptive to local smoothness than splines or similar basis procedures. Existing analyses of trend filt…
A Cautionary Tale of LyC Escape Fraction Estimates from High Redshift Galaxies
R. Bassett, E. V. Ryan-Weber, J. Cooke +7
Measuring the escape fraction, , of ionizing, Lyman Continuum (LyC) radiation is key to our understanding of the process of cosmic reionization. In this paper we provi…
Lyman Continuum Galaxy Candidates in COSMOS
Laura J. Prichard, Marc Rafelski, Jeff Cooke +11

DeepFake Detection with Inconsistent Head Poses: Reproducibility and Analysis
Kevin Lutz, Robert Bassett
Applications of deep learning to synthetic media generation allow the creation of convincing forgeries, called DeepFakes, with limited technical expertise. DeepFake detection is an…
Systematic difference between ionized and molecular gas velocity dispersion in disks and local analogues

We present an overview of the Middle Ages Galaxy Properties with Integral Field Spectroscopy (MAGPI) survey, a Large Program on ESO/VLT. MAGPI is designed to study the physical dri…
Outside the Lyman-break box: detecting Lyman continuum emitters at with CLAUDS
Uroš Meštrić, E. V. Ryan-Weber, J. Cooke +12
Identifying non-contaminated sample of high-redshift galaxies with escaping Lyman continuum (LyC) flux is important for understanding the sources and evolution of cosmic reionizati…
The intricate link between galaxy dynamics and intrinsic shape (or why so-called prolate rotation is a misnomer)
Caroline Foster, Robert Bassett
Many recent integral integral field spectroscopy (IFS) survey teams have used stellar kinematic maps combined with imaging to statistically infer the underlying distributions of ga…
Prospects for Recovering Galaxy Intrinsic Shapes from Projected Quantities
Robert Bassett, Caroline Foster
The distribution of three dimensional intrinsic galaxy shapes has been a longstanding open question. The difficulty stems from projection effects meaning one must rely on statistic…
On the Lack of Correlation Between [OIII]/[OII] and Lyman-Continuum Escape Fraction
R. Bassett, E. V. Ryan-Weber, J. Cooke +9
We present the first results of our pilot study of 8 photometrically selected Lyman continuum (LyC) emitting galaxy candidates from the COSMOS field and focus on their optical emis…
Robust Cross-correlation-based Measurement of Clump Sizes in Galaxies
Kamran Ali, Danail Obreschkow, David B. Fisher +4
Stars form in molecular complexes that are visible as giant clouds () in nearby galaxies and as giant clumps () in ga…
The connection between the peaks in velocity dispersion and star-forming clumps of turbulent galaxies
