پژوهشگر
Dr. Jelte de Jong is a researcher and Head of the Computer Group at the Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, part of the Faculty of Science and Engineering at the University of Groningen. His work focuses on gravitational lensing analysis, machine learning applications in astronomy, and large-scale survey data processing. He leads computational efforts for projects like the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) and contributes to datasets such as KiDS+VIKING-450 and KiDS-VIKING-450 cosmic shear. His research interests include weak lensing, galaxy evolution, and cosmological parameter estimation through multi-probe analysis. Key contributions include developing automated lens detection algorithms using Deep Learning (e.g., DenseLens) and analyzing galaxy halo properties using weak lensing data. He has published extensively in journals like Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society and Astronomy & Astrophysics , with a focus on cosmology and astrophysical data analysis. His work often involves collaborations on international surveys and contributes to the Euclid mission's preparatory efforts. Dr. de Jong's datasets and methodologies are widely cited in cosmological studies, emphasizing his role in bridging computational methods with observational astronomy. He holds an academic position at the Kapteyn Institute and actively participates in the astronomy community through research and institutional roles.
