Hancock","Natasha Hurley-Walker","Tim E. White"],"abstract":"We present Robbie: a general work-flow for the detection and characterization of radio variability and transient events in the image domain. Robbie is designed to work in a batch processing paradigm with a modular design so that components can be swapped out or upgraded to adapt to different input data, whilst retaining a consistent and coherent methodological approach. Robbie is based on commonly used and open software, and is encapsulated in a Makefile to aid portability and reproducibility. In this paper wedescribe the methodology behind Robbie, and demonstrate its use on real and simulated data. Robbie is available on GitHub.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1902.06956v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1902.06956v1.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":"robbie-a-batch-processing-work-flow-for-the","repo_url":"https://github.com/PaulHancock/Robbie","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
