Abstract-A visibility-domain processing for optical interferometric imaging (VP-OII) method is proposed to model the visibility distribution of an image, and a phase recovery technique is proposed to acquire additional visibility data from the powerspectrum and closure-phase data. This method requires only a few tunable parameters, and can be easily extended to include more data acquired from different instruments. By simulating the reconstruction of an LkHα 101 image, the proposed method proves a few hundreds times faster and is more resilient to noise than the conventional MIRA.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
