Optimising a magnitude-limited spectroscopic training sample for photometric classification of supernovae

no code implementations22 Dec 2020 Jonathan E. Carrick, Isobel M. Hook, Elizabeth Swann, Kyle Boone, Chris Frohmaier, Alex G. Kim, Mark Sullivan

Classification performance noticeably improves when we combine the magnitude-limited training sample with a simulated realistic sample of faint, high-redshift supernovae observed from larger spectroscopic facilities; the algorithms' range of average area under ROC curve (AUC) scores over 10 runs increases from 0. 547-0. 628 to 0. 946-0. 969 and purity of the classified sample reaches 95 per cent in all runs for 2 of the 4 algorithms.
