We propose a deep neural network-based framework that takes as its input a low-dimensional vector of sampled uvdata and outputs source positions on the sky. We investigated a representation of the complex-valued input uv-data via the real and imaginary and the magnitude and phase components. We provided a comparison of the efficiency of the proposed framework with the traditional source localization pipeline based on the state-of-the-art Python Blob Detection and Source Finder (PyBDSF) method. The investigation was performed on a data set of 9164 sky models simulated using the Common Astronomy Software Applications (CASA) tool for the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) Cycle 5.3 antenna configuration. We investigated two scenarios: (i) noise-free as an ideal case and (ii) sky simulations including noise representative of typical extra-galactic millimeter observations. In the noise-free case, the proposed localization framework demonstrates the same high performance as the state-of-the-art PyBDSF method. For noisy data, however, our new method demonstrates significantly better performance, achieving a completeness level that is three times higher for sources with uniform signal-to-noise (S/N) ratios between 1 and 10, and a high increase in completeness in the low S/N regime. Furthermore, the execution time of the proposed framework is significantly reduced (by factors about 30) as compared to traditional methods that include image reconstructions from the uv-plane and subsequent source detections.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.03533v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.03533v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"challenging-interferometric-imaging-machine","repo_url":"https://github.com/tarano/ml-based_source_localization_from_uv-plane","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"tf","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"MIT"}}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2305.03533","mcp":{"get_harvested_code_for_paper":{"arxiv_id":"2305.03533"}},"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers","read_at":"2026-09-24T18:15:14+00:00","read_at_is":"when the build read Syntology's graph, not when any sample ran","claim":"Per-sample execution status on synthesized fixtures; not a correctness claim about the paper.
