Scientific paper

Two methods of astrometric plate reduction are checked by determining the proper motions of probable members of the alpha Persei cluster from Palomar Schmidt plates. One method consists of adding a stochastic filtering to the first method, a traditional plate constant reduction. Of the two methods, the one that makes use of stochastic filtering gave results closer to those obtained with wide-angle astrographic plates.
