Astrophysical and Cosmological Applications of Machine Learnings ================================================================ - This is Jun, 2019, and an ADS search of “machine learning” in the abstract of referred astronomy journals result in **711** papers, so it is almost too late to try to “read everything”…but at least we can try: - And, again, this list only reflects one person’s taste. -------------- Galaxy Morphology ----------------- - `Morpheus: A Deep Learning Framework For Pixel-Level Analysis of Astronomical Image Data `__ - By Ryan Hausen & Brant Robertson. Based on the `work here `__. `Source code is on Github `__. - **Morpheus** is a neural network model used to generate pixel-level morphological classifications for astronomical sources. This model can be used to generate segmentation maps or to inform other photometric measurements with granular morphological information. Built on **Tensorflow**. - `Online document is here `__; and `this notebook `__ is a good place to get started. - `Rotation-invariant convolutional neural networks for galaxy morphology prediction `__ Photometric Redshift -------------------- - `TPZ: photometric redshift PDFs and ancillary information by using prediction trees and random forests `__ - Decision tree and random forest. Cosmology --------- - `ml-in-cosmology - a comprehensive list of published machine learning applications to cosmology `__ - A beautiful list compiled by `George Stein `__ - “Each entry contains the paper title, a simple summary of the machine learning methods used in the work, and the arxiv link” - `MiSTree - Beyond two-point statistics: using the Minimum Spanning Tree as a tool for cosmology `__ - The `public code can be found here `__
