Exposing flaws of generative model evaluation metrics and their unfair treatment of diffusion models

George Stein, Jesse C. Cresswell, Rasa Hosseinzadeh +7

We systematically study a wide variety of generative models spanning semantically-diverse image datasets to understand and improve the feature extractors and metrics used to evalua…

Exploring the Non-Gaussianity of the Cosmic Infrared Background and Its Weak Gravitational Lensing

Jaemyoung Lee, J. Richard Bond, Pavel Motloch +2

Gravitational lensing deflects the paths of photons, altering the statistics of cosmic backgrounds and distorting their information content. We take the Cosmic Infrared Background…

A Probabilistic Autoencoder for Type Ia Supernovae Spectral Time Series

George Stein, Uros Seljak, Vanessa Bohm +37

We construct a physically-parameterized probabilistic autoencoder (PAE) to learn the intrinsic diversity of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from a sparse set of spectral time series. T…

Superclustering with the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and Dark Energy Survey: I. Evidence for thermal energy anisotropy using oriented stacking

M. Lokken, R. Hložek, A. van Engelen +104

The cosmic web contains filamentary structure on a wide range of scales. On the largest scales, superclustering aligns multiple galaxy clusters along inter-cluster bridges, visible…
