The aim of this workshop is to explore possible joint research interests between CWI and ASTRON around highlight computing / math challenges in astronomy.
The talks and discussion will be centered around 3 themes:
1. From data to insight: insights from the field of computational imaging, modelling, and high-dimensional (Bayesian) statistics are useful for gaining new insights from data.
2. Fast processing for astronomical (amounts of) data: Telescopes generate data at a rate that is far higher than can be processed. Advances in edge computing, neuromorphic computing, as well as data-base architectures can enable real-time processing, thereby removing one of the bottlenecks for further scientific analysis.
3. Digital twinning: For both advanced processing, and monitoring, the telescopes need to be monitored in real-time. Digital twins could help in correcting flaws by postprocessing, as well as predictive maintenance to minimise off-time.
