Investigating Cosmological GAN Emulators Using Latent Space Interpolation

1 code implementation21 Apr 2020 Andrius Tamosiunas, Hans A. Winther, Kazuya Koyama, David J. Bacon, Robert C. Nichol, Ben Mawdsley

Recent results show that GANs can be used as a fast, efficient and computationally cheap emulator for producing novel weak lensing convergence maps as well as cosmic web data in 2-D and 3-D.

When combined with supernova Ia data, we find H0 = 67. 3+/-1. 0 km/s/Mpc even for our most general dark energy model, in tension with some direct measurements.

The baryonic acoustic feature is used to obtain model independent constraints cz/H/r_s = 12. 28 +- 0. 82 (6. 7 per-cent accuracy) and D_A/r_s = 9. 05 +- 0. 27 (3. 0 per-cent) with a correlation coefficient of -0. 5, where r_s is the sound horizon scale at the end of the baryonic drag era.
