The promise of self-supervised and active learning for Strong Lens discovery: Astronomaly applied to KiDS

Margherita Grespan, Aprajita Verma, Michelle Lochner +3

Strong gravitational lenses (SGLs) are rare systems whose discovery currently relies primarily on supervised machine learning methods trained on large simulated datasets. We presen…

A targeted machine learning approach for detecting diffuse radio emission with Astronomaly: Protege

Verlon Etsebeth, Michelle Lochner, Konstantinos Kolokythas +2

Diffuse radio emission in galaxy clusters, such as radio halos, relics, and mini halos, is a key tracer of non-thermal processes, turbulence, and magnetic fields within the intra-c…

A Guided Unconditional Diffusion Model to Synthesize and Inpaint Radio Galaxies from FIRST, MGCLS and Radio Zoo

Rémi Poitevineau, Emma Tolley, Verlon Etsebeth

We present a masked-guided approach for a denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) trained to generate and inpaint realistic radio galaxy images. The inpainting capability is…

TEGLIE: Transformer encoders as strong gravitational lens finders in KiDS

Margherita Grespan, Hareesh Thuruthipilly, Agnieszka Pollo +3

We apply a state-of-the-art transformer algorithm to 221 deg of the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS) to search for new strong gravitational lenses (SGL). We test four transformer enco…

Practical Galaxy Morphology Tools from Deep Supervised Representation Learning

Mike Walmsley, Anna M. M. Scaife, Chris Lintott +9

Astronomers have typically set out to solve supervised machine learning problems by creating their own representations from scratch. We show that deep learning models trained to an…
