Microlensing Detection and Inference via Learned Bayes Factors
Nolan Smyth, Laurence Perreault-Levasseur, Yashar Hezaveh
We present a unified framework for gravitational microlensing event detection and parameter inference. Traditional pipelines use deterministic hard cuts on photometric statistics,…

Transformer Embeddings for Fast Microlensing Inference
Nolan Smyth, Laurence Perreault-Levasseur, Yashar Hezaveh
The search for free-floating planets (FFPs) is a key science driver for upcoming microlensing surveys like the Nancy Grace Roman Galactic Exoplanet Survey. These rogue worlds are t…
