On the performance of pre-trained vision transformers for supernova spectral classification using different spectral representations

J. Serrano Bell, P. Gálvez Molina, V. Contreras Rojas +4

The spectroscopic classification of supernovae is a key component of time-domain astronomy and plays an important role in the identification of Type Ia events. The increasing volum…

The Chandra-Gaia Catalog of Counterparts: Resolving ambiguous Gaia matches to X-ray sources in the Chandra Source Catalog using Machine Learning

V. Samuel Pérez-Díaz, Vinay L. Kashyap, Joshua D. Ingram +6

We present a framework to cross-match sources from the Chandra Source Catalog (CSC v2.1) with optical sources from Gaia Data Release 3. Unlike purely spatial approaches, we use sou…

ASTROCO: Self-Supervised Conformer-Style Transformers for Light-Curve Embeddings

Antony Tan, Pavlos Protopapas, Martina Cádiz-Leyton +3

We present AstroCo, a Conformer-style encoder for irregular stellar light curves. By combining attention with depthwise convolutions and gating, AstroCo captures both global depend…

Astro-MoE: Mixture of Experts for Multiband Astronomical Time Series

Martina Cádiz-Leyton, Guillermo Cabrera-Vives, Pavlos Protopapas +2

Multiband astronomical time series exhibit heterogeneous variability patterns, sampling cadences, and signal characteristics across bands. Standard transformers apply shared parame…

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…

ABC-SN: Attention Based Classifier for Supernova Spectra

Willow Fox Fortino, Federica B. Bianco, Pavlos Protopapas +2

While significant advances have been made in photometric classification ahead of the millions of transient events and hundreds of supernovae (SNe) each night that the Vera C. Rubin…
