Are classification metrics good proxies for SN Ia cosmological constraining power?

Alex I. Malz, Mi Dai, Kara A. Ponder +10

Context: When selecting a classifier to use for a supernova Ia (SN Ia) cosmological analysis, it is common to make decisions based on metrics of classification performance, i.e. co…

Optimizing spectroscopic follow-up strategies for supernova photometric classification with active learning

E. E. O. Ishida, R. Beck, S. Gonzalez-Gaitan +10

We report a framework for spectroscopic follow-up design for optimizing supernova photometric classification. The strategy accounts for the unavoidable mismatch between spectroscop…
