k-means aperture optimization applied to Kepler K2 time series photometry of Titan

Abstract:

Motivated by the Kepler K2 time series of Titan, we present an aperture optimization technique for extracting photometry of saturated moving targets with high temporally and spatially varying backgrounds. Our approach uses k-means clustering to identify interleaved families of images with similar point-spread function and saturation properties, optimizes apertures for each family independently, then merges the time series through a normalization procedure. By applying k-means aperture optimiz...
