Informative regularization for a multi-layer perceptron RR Lyrae classifier under data shift

no code implementations12 Mar 2023 Francisco Pérez-Galarce, Karim Pichara, Pablo Huijse, Márcio Catelan, Domingo Mery

Consequently, we propose a scalable and easily adaptable approach based on an informative regularization and an ad-hoc training procedure to mitigate the shift problem during the training of a multi-layer perceptron for RR Lyrae classification.

Classifying CMB time-ordered data through deep neural networks

no code implementations13 Apr 2020 Felipe Rojas, Loïc Maurin, Rolando Dünner, Karim Pichara

Finally, we performed a cross-season test over 148 GHz data from 2009 and 2010 for which our model reaches a precision of 99. 8% and 99. 5%, respectively.

Scalable End-to-end Recurrent Neural Network for Variable star classification

1 code implementation3 Feb 2020 Ignacio Becker, Karim Pichara, Márcio Catelan, Pavlos Protopapas, Carlos Aguirre, Fatemeh Nikzat

Our method uses minimal data preprocessing, can be updated with a low computational cost for new observations and light curves, and can scale up to massive datasets.

Streaming Classification of Variable Stars

1 code implementation4 Dec 2019 Lukas Zorich, Karim Pichara, Pavlos Protopapas

Naively re-training from scratch is not an option in streaming settings, mainly because of the expensive pre-processing routines required to obtain a vector representation of light curves (features) each time we include new observations.

An Information Theory Approach on Deciding Spectroscopic Follow Ups

1 code implementation6 Nov 2019 Javiera Astudillo, Pavlos Protopapas, Karim Pichara, Pablo Huijse

We propose a methodology in a probabilistic setting that determines a-priory which objects are worth taking spectrum to obtain better insights, where we focus 'insight' as the type of the object (classification).

Deep multi-survey classification of variable stars

no code implementations21 Oct 2018 Carlos Aguirre, Karim Pichara, Ignacio Becker

In this work, we present a novel Deep Learning model for light curve classification, mainly based on convolutional units.

Clustering Based Feature Learning on Variable Stars

1 code implementation29 Feb 2016 Cristóbal Mackenzie, Karim Pichara, Pavlos Protopapas

Representatives of these patterns, called exemplars, are then used to transform lightcurves of a labeled set into a new representation that can then be used to train an automatic classifier.

Supervised detection of anomalous light-curves in massive astronomical catalogs

no code implementations18 Apr 2014 Isadora Nun, Karim Pichara, Pavlos Protopapas, Dae-Won Kim

With the aim of taking full advantage of all the information we have about known objects, our method is based on a supervised algorithm.

An improved quasar detection method in EROS-2 and MACHO LMC datasets

no code implementations1 Apr 2013 Karim Pichara, Pavlos Protopapas, Dae-Won Kim, Jean-Baptiste Marquette, Patrick Tisserand

We present a new classification method for quasar identification in the EROS-2 and MACHO datasets based on a boosted version of Random Forest classifier.
