Self-Supervised Representation Learning for JWST Galaxy Images and Low Resolution Spectra

Yang Cheng, Morgan Fouesneau, Ivelina G. Momcheva +2

A self-supervised multimodal model recovers galaxy stellar masses from sparse JWST data that lack the multi-band coverage required by traditional SED fitting. We train on single-ba…

RUBIX: Differentiable forward modelling of galaxy spectral data cubes for gradient-based parameter estimation

Anna Lena Schaible, Ufuk Çakır, Tobias Buck +5

Although integral-field spectroscopy enables spatially resolved spectral studies of galaxies, bridging particle-based simulations to observations remains slow and non-differentiabl…
