As observational datasets become larger and more complex, so too are the questions being asked of these data. Data simulations, i.e., synthetic data with properties (pixelization, noise, PSF, artifacts, etc.) akin to real data, are therefore increasingly required for several purposes, including: (1) testing complicated measurement methods, (2) comparing models and astrophysical simulations to observations in a manner that requires as few assumptions about the data as possible, (3) predicting observational results based on models and astrophysical simulations for, e.g., proposal planning, and (4) mitigating risk for future observatories and missions by effectively priming and testing pipelines. We advocate for an increase in using synthetic data to plan for and interpret real observations as a matter of routine. This will require funding for (1) facilities to provide robust data simulators for their instruments, telescopes, and surveys, and (2) making synthetic data publicly available in archives (much like real data) so as to lower the barrier of entry to all.
$textbf{Background:}$ At the onset of a pandemic, such as COVID-19, data with proper labeling/attributes corresponding to the new disease might be unavailable or sparse. Machine Learning (ML) models trained with the available data, which is limited i
Over the past decades and even centuries, the astronomical community has accumulated a signif-icant heritage of recorded observations of a great many astronomical objects. Those records con-tain irreplaceable information about long-term evolutionary
Face verification has come into increasing focus in various applications including the European Entry/Exit System, which integrates face recognition mechanisms. At the same time, the rapid advancement of biometric authentication requires extensive pe
In recent years, deep learning models have resulted in a huge amount of progress in various areas, including computer vision. By nature, the supervised training of deep models requires a large amount of data to be available. This ideal case is usuall
Data Challenge 1 (DC1) is the first synthetic dataset produced by the Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC). DC1 is designed to develop and validate data reduction and analysis and to study
