SOCKS (Statistical Outlier Curation Kernel Software)

Figure 1: Far side of the moon as seen by Luna-3 mission in 1959 (A) and the same by NASA LRO mission in 2009 (C).  (B) is curated from (A) to reveal and compare pristine feature points from LRO gold-standard image (C).  What is truth ? hmm...🤔. If you hear the sound 🕪 of a frog 🐸 in the living room, the sound may come from a National Geographic documentary on the TV 📺 or from the garden 🏡🏡🏡 or may be like one of those rare occasions, Mr. 🐸 managed to make it to the living room! However, it is clear from the 🐸 story that, merely noticing some evidence may not necessarily lead us to the original truth without some additional information or constraints. But with a given level of evidence, almost always, there is a best possible way to know the most pristine version of the truth ! Truth with versions? However outrageous it may seem, new insights from data science makes it clear that,  truth , at least the way it is often revealed is, as a matter of fact, versioned!...
