Fast and Flexible Characterisation of Astronomical Light Curves Using Multi-Time Attention

Yash Gondhalekar, Anais Möller, Paula Sánchez-Sáez

We present an unsupervised, data-driven framework for rapid characterisation of astronomical photometric time series using a Multi-Time Attention Network. The model learns time-awa…

Navigating AGN variability with self-organizing maps

Ylenia Maruccia, Demetra De Cicco, Stefano Cavuoti +6

Context. The classification of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is a challenge in astrophysics. Variability features extracted from light curves offer a promising avenue for distingui…

Searching for changing-state AGNs in massive datasets -- I: applying deep learning and anomaly detection techniques to find AGNs with anomalous variability behaviours

P. Sánchez-Sáez, H. Lira, L. Martí +14

The classic classification scheme for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) was recently challenged by the discovery of the so-called changing-state (changing-look) AGNs (CSAGNs). The phys…
