Algorithms developed

Astroalign: A Python module for the alignment of two stellar images without World Coordinate System information.

Astronomy broker website: A Django website to coordinate the assignment of observational targets for a night of observation between different observatories.

Refactoring of AutoMix: AutoMix is a Reversible Jump MCMC sampler developed by David Hastie. (C)

OIS (Optimal Image Subtraction): A Python module to find transient events on stellar images. Uses modern Image Difference Analysis techniques.

Software pipeline for reduction and analysis of astronomical images. Algorithms developed: Optimal Image Differencing and Machine Learning classifier. (Python, Django web app)

Bayesian analysis to estimate the influence of calibration errors on LIGO gravitational wave data. (C++)

Spectral Method modeling algorithm to numerically solve a 2D helically-reduced wave equation on different geometries with mixed boundary conditions (Fortran algorithms added to a pre existing repository of spectral method routines, SVN, Mathematica).

Numerical integrator of time-like geodesics (light paths) around a rotating black hole. 3D representa- tion of the geodesic using OpenGL in an interactive OS X GUI. (C, Objective-C, OpenGL)

Prototype algorithm for a real-time radio pulse detection, searching for “dispersion measure” signature in transient astronomical signals. (C, PGPLOT, FFTW, OpenMP)
