Real-Time Detection and Classification of Astronomical Transient Events: The State-of-the-Art

arXiv:2105.00089

Abstract

In the last years, the need for automated real-time detection and classification of astronomical transients began to be more impelling. Better technologies involve a higher number of detected candidates and an automated classification will allow dealing with this amount of data, every night. The desired state-of-the-art in detection and classification will be presented in its key features and different practical approaches will be introduced, as well. Several ongoing and future surveys will be presented, showing the current situation of Time-Domain Astronomy, and eventually compared with the desired state-of-the-art. The final purpose of this paper is to highlight the general technology readiness level with respect to the level yet to be achieved.
