Image processing for astronomy #92

Closed HannoSpreeuw closed 1 year ago

HannoSpreeuw commented 1 year ago

This new section was added to include a scientific workflow that can be performed on the GPU.

It has four subsections, to cover all four steps of image processing for astronomy:

1) Determination of background characteristics 2) Segmentation by thresholding 3) Connected component labelling 4) Source measurements.

All steps are performed on both CPU and GPU.

As a final challenge an overall speedup factor needs to be calculated.

I see that the Greek letters \kappa and \sigma are not rendered properly. How to fix this?

I am fixing it.
