Sliced inverse approach and domain recovery for stochastic inverse problems
… the Stochastic Inverse Problem (SIP) to perform scientific inference and prediction for complex physical systems which are characterized by mathematical models, e.g. differential equations. We treat both discrete and continuous cases. The SIP concerns inferring the values and quantifying the …

Probabilistic methods for radio interferometry data analysis
… with greater flexibility to problems of scientific inference. In this thesis, we are concerned with applying this method to the analysis of visibility data from radio interferometers. Any radio interferometry observation can be described using the Radio Interferometry Measurement Equation …
