How to manage AI risks while reaping the benefits But
The kine algorithm is a static or dynamic image reconstruction algorithm for interferometric data. It is a forward imaging method, based on a neural field representation43 of the brightness distribution of the source. In this section, we describe our methodology, starting with a general overview of VLBI measurements followed by an explanation of the kine
