An Information-Theoretic Metric for Transient Classification and Novelty Detection

Yu-Qian, Ouyang, Alex I. Malz +4

The development of the observing strategy for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) requires a broad optimization across science cases inside and out…

Diagnosing the Effects of Spectroscopic Training Set Imperfection on Photometric Redshift Performance

Alice Crafford, Alex I. Malz, Tianqing Zhang +11

Most LSST extragalactic science will rely on photometric redshifts (photo-) to extract distance information for the galaxies. However, an incomplete or non-representative traini…

Redshift Assessment Infrastructure Layers (RAIL): Rubin-era photometric redshift stress-testing and at-scale production

The RAIL Team, Jan Luca van den Busch, Eric Charles +30

Virtually all extragalactic use cases of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) require the use of galaxy redshift information, yet the vast majorit…

ORACLE: A Real-Time, Hierarchical, Deep-Learning Photometric Classifier for the LSST

Ved G. Shah, Alex Gagliano, Konstantin Malanchev +3

We present ORACLE, the first hierarchical deep-learning model for real-time, context-aware classification of transient and variable astrophysical phenomena. ORACLE is a recurrent n…
