Abstract Objective. Decoding neural activity has been limited by the lack of tools available to record from large numbers neurons across multiple cortical regions simultaneously with high temporal fidelity. To this end, we developed Argo system at data rates. Approach.

Bringing artificial intelligence (AI) alongside next-generation X-ray imaging detectors, including CCDs and DEPFET sensors, enhances their sensitivity to achieve many of the flagship science cases targeted by future observatories, based upon low surface brightness high redshift sources. Machine learning algorithms operating on raw frame-level data provide enhanced identification background vs. astrophysical events, considering all signals in context within which they appear each frame. We...
Charge coupled devices remain the scientific tool of choice for x-ray imaging spectrometers astrophysics applications due to their deep depletion depths, low noise, and uniform Gaussian energy response. These qualities provide advantages over both monolithic hybridized CMOS sensors in this application space, but relative these alternatives come most significantly at cost frame rate.
