Identification of linear features (streaks) in astronomical images is important for several
reasons, including: detecting fast-moving near-Earth asteroids; detecting or flagging faint …

Aims. The expansion of satellite constellations poses a significant challenge to optical
ground-based astronomical observations, as satellite trails degrade observational data and …

Computer Vision (CV) is undoubtedly one of the most popular forms of Artificial Intelligence
(AI) and its implementation has gained considerable ground in all aspects of our lives, from …

In recent years, the study of parallel or cluster meteor events has become increasingly
popular. Many imaging systems currently focus on meteor detection, but the algorithms …

Image processing techniques for background star removal from astronomical images have
important applications such as streak detection and star/galaxy differentiation in galaxy …

Detecting near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is crucial for research in solar system and planetary
science. In recent year, deep-learning methods have almost dominated the task. Since …

Given the current limited knowledge of meteor plasma micro-physics and its interaction with
the surrounding atmosphere and ionosphere, meteors are a highly interesting observational …

The intranight trajectories of asteroids can be approximated by straight lines, and so are
their intranight detections. Therefore, the Hough transform, a line detecting algorithm, can be …

We present the Umbrella software suite for asteroid detection, validation, identification and
reporting. The current core of Umbrella is an open-source modular library, called Umbrella2 …

Initial orbit determination (IOD) is an important early step in the processing chain that makes
sense of and reconciles the multiple optical observations of a resident space object. IOD …
