Latent Stochastic Differential Equations for Modeling Quasar Variability and Inferring Black Hole Properties

Joshua Fagin, Ji Won Park, Henry Best +6

Quasars are bright and unobscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) thought to be powered by the accretion of matter around supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies. The temp…

Hierarchical Inference of the Lensing Convergence from Photometric Catalogs with Bayesian Graph Neural Networks

Ji Won Park, Simon Birrer, Madison Ueland +6

We present a Bayesian graph neural network (BGNN) that can estimate the weak lensing convergence () from photometric measurements of galaxies along a given line of sight. The me…

Inferring Black Hole Properties from Astronomical Multivariate Time Series with Bayesian Attentive Neural Processes

Ji Won Park, Ashley Villar, Yin Li +5

Among the most extreme objects in the Universe, active galactic nuclei (AGN) are luminous centers of galaxies where a black hole feeds on surrounding matter. The variability patter…

Large-Scale Gravitational Lens Modeling with Bayesian Neural Networks for Accurate and Precise Inference of the Hubble Constant

Ji Won Park, Sebastian Wagner-Carena, Simon Birrer +3

We investigate the use of approximate Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) in modeling hundreds of time-delay gravitational lenses for Hubble constant () determination. Our BNN was…
