CONFIRM – Clustering of noisy form images using robust matching
2019
Pattern Recognition
This work presents a novel algorithm: CONFIRM (Clustering Of Noisy Form Images using Robust Matching), which simultaneously discovers the types in a collection of forms and assigns each form to a type. ...
CONFIRM matches type-set text and rule lines between forms to create domain specific features, which we show outperform Bag of Visual Word (BoVW) features employed by the current state-of-the-art. ...
This work presents CONFIRM (Clustering Of Noisy Form Images using Robust Matching), an approach which performs unsupervised form type discovery and assignment in the presence of significant noise. ...

Spectroscopic confirmation of redshifts predicted by gravitational lensing
1998
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
We present deep spectroscopic measurements of 18 distant field galaxies identified as gravitationally-lensed arcs in a Hubble Space Telescope image of the cluster Abell 2218. ...
Redshifts of these objects were predicted by Kneib et al. (1996) using a lensing analysis constrained by the properties of two bright arcs of known redshift and other multiply-imaged sources. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We thank Mike Breare and all the La Palma support sta for ensuring the smooth operation of LDSS-2 on the WHT. We especially thank Karl Glazebrook for the use of his RED-SHIFT utility. ...

GRB 070714B—DISCOVERY OF THE HIGHEST SPECTROSCOPICALLY CONFIRMED SHORT BURST REDSHIFT
2009
Astrophysical Journal
This redshift, as well as a subsequent probable spectroscopic redshift determination of GRB 070429B at z=0.904 by two other groups, significantly exceeds the previous highest spectroscopically confirmed ...
This dramatically moves back the time at which we know short bursts were being formed, and suggests that the present evidence for an old progenitor population may be observationally biased. ...

The first spectroscopically confirmed brown dwarfs in NGC 2264
2021
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
These are the first spectroscopically confirmed brown dwarfs in this benchmark cluster. 19 more objects are found to be young M-type stars of NGC 2264 with masses of 0.08 to 0.3 M⊙. 7 of the confirmed ...

Spectroscopic Confirmation of a Population of Isolated, Intermediate-mass Young Stellar Objects
2022
Astronomical Journal
Wide-field searches for young stellar objects (YSOs) can place useful constraints on the prevalence of clustered versus distributed star formation. ...
We confirm the YSO classifications of all 26 sources based on their positions on the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, H and Ca ii line emission from over half the sample, and robust detection of infrared excesses ...
We would like to thank the referee for providing a thorough report and many useful suggestions. ...

The web of the Giant: spectroscopic confirmation of a Large Scale Structure around the z=6.31 quasar SDSS J1030+0524
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
We report on the spectroscopic confirmation of a large scale structure around the luminous, z=6.31 QSO SDSS J1030+0524, that is powered by a billion solar mass black hole. ...
Our finding lends support to the idea that the most distant and massive black holes form and grow within massive (>10^12 Msun) dark matter halos in large scale structures, and that the absence of earlier ...
We thank the referee for careful reading and detailed report that improved the quality of the manuscript. We acknowledge funding from the ...

The eROSITA Final Equatorial-Depth Survey (eFEDS): Optical confirmation, redshifts, and properties of the cluster and group catalog
2021
Astronomy and Astrophysics
We make use of the multi-component matched filter cluster confirmation tool (MCMF), as well as of the optical cluster finder CAMIRA to derive cluster redshifts and richnesses. ...
Of these, 470 (98.5%) are confirmed using MCMF, and 7 systems are added through cross-matching with spectroscopic group catalogs. ...
This paper makes use of software developed for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope. ...

EVIDENCE FOR PopIII-LIKE STELLAR POPULATIONS IN THE MOST LUMINOUS LyαEMITTERS AT THE EPOCH OF REIONIZATION: SPECTROSCOPIC CONFIRMATION
2015
Astrophysical Journal
We used X-SHOOTER, SINFONI and FORS2 (VLT), and DEIMOS (Keck), to confirm both candidates beyond any doubt. We find redshifts of z=6.541 and z=6.604 for MASOSA and CR7, respectively. ...
Our findings are consistent with theoretical predictions of a PopIII wave, with PopIII star formation migrating away from the original sites of star formation. ...
We thank the anonymous reviewer for useful and constructive comments and suggestions which greatly improved the quality and clarity of our work. ...
