one failed but interesting approach to classifying images using hierarchical trees.

Multi image stacking that’s been driving me crazy these last weeks. Just completed the first mosaic, 2008, comprised of ~30 images, yes! Running a despeckling program in IDL, hope it looks good.

Here is an example of the core of the despeckler procedure:

I’ve been planning to optimize it to run without the use of for loops, however at the moment this is just not necessary given we only have 3 mosaics to run (but it would go from 30 minutes processing time to probably around 30 seconds!).
