Format: Paperback (softcover)
The softcover printing of the second edition of Starck and Murtagh's survey of image, signal, and data processing for astronomy, published in the Astronomy and Astrophysics Library series with a 2006 copyright and running to 338 pages. It is written for graduate students, professional astronomers and astrophysicists, and researchers in adjacent fields such as earth observation, medical imaging, and data mining.
Organized around the twin themes of information and scale, the ten chapters move from an introduction to applications and methods through filtering, deconvolution, detection, and image compression, then on to multichannel data, an entropic treatment of astronomical data analysis, astronomical catalog analysis, multiple resolution in data storage and retrieval, and a closing chapter on the Virtual Observatory. The second edition is more algorithmically oriented than most alternatives and extends into newer territory including ridgelet and curvelet transforms, with additions and updates throughout. Appendices cover wavelet transforms, Picard iteration, and software tools, and the book carries a substantial bibliography.
Suited to graduate coursework in observational astronomy and astronomical data analysis, research reference for image and signal processing, and independent study by serious amateur astronomers working with real telescope data.
