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…

lenstronomy II: A gravitational lensing software ecosystem

Simon Birrer, Anowar J. Shajib, Daniel Gilman +18

lenstronomy is an Astropy-affiliated Python package for gravitational lensing simulations and analyses. lenstronomy was introduced by Birrer and Amara (2018) and is based on the li…

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…

Hierarchical Inference With Bayesian Neural Networks: An Application to Strong Gravitational Lensing

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

In the past few years, approximate Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) have demonstrated the ability to produce statistically consistent posteriors on a wide range of inference problem…

TDCOSMO IV: Hierarchical time-delay cosmography -- joint inference of the Hubble constant and galaxy density profiles

S. Birrer, A. J. Shajib, A. Galan +24

The H0LiCOW collaboration inferred via gravitational lensing time delays a Hubble constant km s, describing deflector mass density pro…
