Avoiding subtraction and division of stochastic signals using normalizing flows: NFdeconvolve.

ABSTRACT: Across the scientific realm, we find ourselves subtracting or dividing stochastic signals. For instance, consider a stochastic realization, x, generated from the addition or multiplication of two stochastic signals, a and b, namely x = a+b or x = ab. For the x = a+b example, a can be fluorescence background and b the signal of interest whose statistics are to be learned from the measured x. Similarly, when writing x = ab, a can be the illumination intensity and b the intensity due to the fluorescent molecules of interest. Yet dividing or subtracting stochastic signals amplifies noise, and we ask whether, using the statistics of a and the measurement of x</
