Neural Posterior Estimation for Tomographic Weak Lensing Mass Mapping

Tim White, Shreyas Chandrashekaran, Camille Avestruz +2

Weak gravitational lensing shear and convergence trace the distribution of baryonic and dark matter across space, making them a powerful probe of cosmic structure. Inferring shear…

Neural Posterior Estimation for Inferring Weak Lensing Shear

Tim White, Dingrui Tao, Camille Avestruz +2

The prevailing approach to inferring weak gravitational lensing shear from images involves detecting galaxies, estimating their ellipticities, and calibrating these estimates to co…
