Photometric light curves classification with machine learning
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope will complete its survey in 2022 and produce terabytes of imaging data each night. To work with this massive onset of data, automated algorithms to classify astronomical light curves are crucial. Here, we present a method for automated classification of photometric light curves for a range of astronomical objects. Our approach is based on the gradient boosting of decision trees, feature extraction and selection, and augmentation. The solution was developed in the context of The Photometric LSST Astronomical Time Series Classification Challenge (PLAsTiCC) and achieved one of the top results in the challenge.
