Machine learning and Kolmogorov analysis to reveal gravitational lenses

Abstract: We present an automated approach to detect and extract information from the astronomical datasets on the shapes of such objects as galaxies, star clusters and, especially, elongated ones such as the gravitational lenses. First, the Kolmogorov stochasticity parameter is used to retrieve the sub-regions that worth further attention. Then we turn to image processing and machine learning Principal Component Analysis algorithm to retrieve the sought objects and reveal the information on their morphologies. We show … Show more

“…Another field of application of AI/ML in cosmological analysis, as indicated in this cluster by the term “gravitational lensing,” is the study of gravitational lenses. In this sense, beyond the discoveries produced by AI/ML in this field (Mirzoyan et al, 2019; Ostrovski et al, 2017; Teimoorinia et al, 2020), it should be mentioned that one of the obstacles in applying DL in the search for this peculiar astrophysical phenomenon is the scarcity of data with which to carry out the training phase. For this reason, simulated lenses are often used, usually on a galactic scale.…”

“…Regarding the gravitational lensing, the most attractive application for ML tools is the possibility for automatic detection of strong gravitational lenses (GL) [4,7,14,16,20,21,25]. One of the main difficulties of this kind of application is that there is not enough big sample available by now (about 200 objects) of real observed strong GL.…”
