Classification of Fermi-LAT blazars with Bayesian neural networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of Bayesian neural networks is a novel approach for the classification gamma-ray sources. We focus on Fermi-LAT blazar candidates, which can be divided into BL Lacertae objects and Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars. In contrast to conventional dense networks, provide reliable estimate uncertainty network predictions. explore correspondence between effect data augmentation. find that robust classifier with estimates are particularly well suited problems based comparatively small imbalanced sets. results our candidate valuable input population studies aimed at constraining luminosity function guide future observational campaigns.

Beaming effect for Fermi/LAT blazars
In this talk, we will show the beaming effect for Fermi/LAT blazars, then we discuss the correlations between γ-ray luminosity and other parameters, such as radio Doppler factors, superluminal motions, and core-dominance parameters. We also compare the Doppler factors determined from the γ-ray luminosity, X-ray emissions, and the short-term time scales with those from other methods. Our discuss...
متن کاملSDSS spectroscopy for blazars in the Fermi LAT bright AGN sample
We have collected all available spectra and photometric data from SDSS catalogue for bright AGNs complied from the first three months of the Fermi large area telescope all-sky survey. Based on the 106 high-confidence and 11 low-confidence association bright AGN list, the photometry data are collected from SDSS DR7 for 28 sources (12 BL Lacs and 16 FSRQs), two of which are low-confidence associa...
متن کاملThe Fermi blazars divide
Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs) and BL Lac objects detected in the first three months of the Fermi survey neatly separate in the γ–ray spectral index vs γ–ray luminosity plane. BL Lac objects are less luminous and have harder spectra than broad line blazars. We suggest that this division has its origin in the different accretion regimes of the two classes of objects. Using the γ–ray luminos...
متن کاملHierarchical Bayesian Neural Networks for Personalized Classification
Building robust classifiers trained on data susceptible to group or subject-specific variations is a challenging yet common problem in pattern recognition. Hierarchical models allow sharing of statistical strength across groups while preserving group-specific idiosyncrasies, and are commonly used for modeling such grouped data [3]. We develop flexible hierarchical Bayesian models that parameter...
متن کاملFermi-LAT Observation of Quiescent Solar Emission
The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of two instruments on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is a pair-conversion detector designed to study the gamma-ray sky in the energy range 30 MeV to 300 GeV. Fermi has detected high-energy gamma rays from the quiet Sun produced by interactions of cosmic-ray nucleons with the solar surface, and cosmic-ray electrons with solar photons in the heliosphere. W...
