• Abstract: The SKA pulsar search pipeline will be used for real time detection of pulsars. Modern radio telescopes such as SKA will be generating petabytes of data in their full scale of operation. Hence experience-based and data-driven algorithms become indispensable for applications such as candidate detection. Here we describe our findings from testing a state of the art object detection algorithm called Mask R-CNN to detect candidate signatures in the SKA pulsar search pipeline. We have trained the Mask R-CNN model to detect candidate images. A custom annotation tool was developed to mark the regions of interest in large datasets efficiently. We have successfully demonstrated this algorithm by detecting candidate signatures on a simulation dataset. The paper presents details of this work with a highlight on the future prospects.

  We propose a novel learned keypoint detection method to increase the number of correct matches for the task of non-rigid image correspondence. We train an end-to-end convolutional neural network (CNN) to find keypoint locations that are more appropriate to the considered descriptor. Experiments demonstrate that our method enhances the Mean Matching Accuracy of numerous descriptors when used in conjunction with our detection method. We also apply our method on the complex real-world task object retrieval where our detector performs on par with the finest keypoint detectors currently available for this task.

  This work presents a novel methodology to automate the creation of datasets for the detection of target events. The presented approach first processes the raw data by applying a pipeline consisting of spatial band registration and georeferencing. It detects the target events by leveraging event-specific state-of-the-art algorithms on the Level-1C products. We apply the proposed methodology to realize THRawS (Thermal Hotspots in Raw Sentinel-2 data), the first dataset of Sentinel-2 raw data containing warm thermal hotspots.
