ILL neutron scattering experiments consist in studying materials physics based on the scattering of neutron particles with a defined energy/speed/wavelength on a sample. These scattered neutrons are recorded on 2D detectors, with, e.g., their time of flight.

The recorded « images » are prone to parasitic "noises", following the fact that, on one hand, the neutrons beams are of low intensity and, on the other hand, from any other unavoidable external sources of noise. Thus, it becomes important to reduce the noise on the spectra through treatment algorithms.

Data can be denoised in the detector space, using traditional techniques. However, data can also be denoised in the reduced space, constituted of 4 dimensions (3 space dimensions, 1 energy one).

We would like to investigate the difference between a "detector data denoising approach" and a "reduced data denoising approach", and better understand if the data coherency in he reduced space can be helpful.

Programming will be mainly in Python using the TensorFlow library.
