MROP: Modulated Rank-One Projections for compressive radio interferometric imaging

This paper proposes a new radio interferometric data dimensionality reduction scheme, coined Modulated Rank-One Projection, with validation on both simulated and real VLA data in comparison to classical and BDA models.

The R2D2 deep neural network series paradigm for fast precision imaging in radio astronomy

This paper proposes a new deep learning-based paradigm, R2D2, for fast precision imaging in radio astronomy, along with its variants R2D2Net and R3D3. The proposed paradigm is demonstrated on VLA simulated data, with comparison to CLEAN and state-of-the-art RI imaging algorithms, uSARA and AIRI.

CLEANing Cygnus A deep and fast with R2D2

This paper proposes a new deep learning-based paradigm, R2D2, for fast precision imaging in radio astronomy, along with its variants R2D2Net and R3D3. The proposed paradigm is demonstrated on real data of the radio galaxy Cygnus A, with comparison to CLEAN and state-of-the-art RI imaging algorithms, uSARA and AIRI.
