Querying an astronomical database using large language models: the ALeRCE text-to-SQL system

P. A. Estevez, J. Espejo-Moreira, S. Sanfeliu-Alvarez +10

We develop a text-to-SQL (structured query language) system based on large language models (LLMs) using in-context learning and apply it to the Automatic Learning for the Rapid Cla…

Image-Based Multi-Survey Classification of Light Curves with a Pre-Trained Vision Transformer

Daniel Moreno-Cartagena, Guillermo Cabrera-Vives, Alejandra M. Muñoz Arancibia +10

We explore the use of Swin Transformer V2, a pre-trained vision Transformer, for photometric classification in a multi-survey setting by leveraging light curves from the Zwicky Tra…
