- Abstract: Detecting the angles and orbits of remote targets precisely has been playing crucial roles in astrophysical research. Due to the resolution limitations imposed by the Airy disk in a single telescope, optical interferometric schemes with at least two telescopes have received considerable attention. We have extended the piecemeal method to reduce the required number of baselines for observation. Through the analysis of its performance under practical conditions, we demonstrate that both the original and extended piecemeal methods exhibit strong robustness against errors in baseline lengths and orientations. Under the same practical conditions, our approach achieves higher precision than other existing weak-light interference-based methods.

- Superresolution in separation estimation between two dynamic incoherent sources using spatial demultiplexing [0.0]
Recently, perfect measurement based on spatial mode demultiplexing (SPADE) in Hermite-Gauss modes allowed one to reach the quantum limit of precision for estimation of separation between two weak incoherent stationary sources.
In this paper, we consider another deviation from the perfect setup by discarding the assumption about the stationarity of the sources.
We formulate a measurement algorithm that allows for the reduction of one parameter for estimation in the stationary sources scenario.

We propose an alternative entanglement-assisted scheme that interferes a two-mode squeezed vacuum state with the astronomical state and then measures the resulting state by means of homodyne detection.
We show that when the Fisher information is observed cumulatively at the rate at which successful measurements can be performed, our proposed scheme does not outperforms the traditional direct detection approach or the entanglement-assisted approach of GJC12.

Light field (LF) images acquired by hand-held devices usually suffer from low spatial resolution.

We propose a novel learning-based LF framework, in which each view of an LF image is first individually super-resolved.
