Sampling-Based Accuracy Testing of Posterior Estimators for General Inference

1 code implementation6 Feb 2023 Pablo Lemos, Adam Coogan, Yashar Hezaveh, Laurence Perreault-Levasseur

We demonstrate the method on a variety of synthetic examples, and show that TARP can be used to test the results of posterior inference analyses in high-dimensional spaces.

Posterior samples of source galaxies in strong gravitational lenses with score-based priors

no code implementations7 Nov 2022 Alexandre Adam, Adam Coogan, Nikolay Malkin, Ronan Legin, Laurence Perreault-Levasseur, Yashar Hezaveh, Yoshua Bengio

Inferring accurate posteriors for high-dimensional representations of the brightness of gravitationally-lensed sources is a major challenge, in part due to the difficulties of accurately quantifying the priors.

Targeted Likelihood-Free Inference of Dark Matter Substructure in Strongly-Lensed Galaxies

no code implementations14 Oct 2020 Adam Coogan, Konstantin Karchev, Christoph Weniger

The analysis of optical images of galaxy-galaxy strong gravitational lensing systems can provide important information about the distribution of dark matter at small scales.

Differentiable Strong Lensing: Uniting Gravity and Neural Nets through Differentiable Probabilistic Programming

no code implementations14 Oct 2019 Marco Chianese, Adam Coogan, Paul Hofma, Sydney Otten, Christoph Weniger

The careful analysis of strongly gravitationally lensed radio and optical images of distant galaxies can in principle reveal DM (sub-)structures with masses several orders of magnitude below the mass of dwarf spheroidal galaxies.

Hazma: A Python Toolkit for Studying Indirect Detection of Sub-GeV Dark Matter

1 code implementation27 Jul 2019 Adam Coogan, Logan Morrison, Stefano Profumo

With several proposed MeV gamma-ray telescopes on the horizon, it is of paramount importance to perform accurate calculations of gamma-ray spectra expected from sub-GeV dark matter annihilation and decay.

Primordial Black Holes as Silver Bullets for New Physics at the Weak Scale

1 code implementation3 May 2019 Gianfranco Bertone, Adam Coogan, Daniele Gaggero, Bradley J. Kavanagh, Christoph Weniger

Observational constraints on gamma rays produced by the annihilation of weakly interacting massive particles around primordial black holes (PBHs) imply that these two classes of Dark Matter candidates cannot coexist.
