Artificial Neural Networks as a Tool for Galaxy Classification
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach to classification of galaxy images and spectra. ANNs can replicate the classification of galaxy images by a human expert to the same degree of agreement as that between two human experts, to within 2 T -type units. Similar methods are applied to classification of galaxy spectra. In particular, Principal Component Analysis of galaxy spectra can be used to compress the data, to suppress noise and to provide input to the ANNs. These and other classification methods will soon be applied to the Anglo-Australian 2-degree-Field (2dF) redshift survey of 250,000 galaxies.

متن کاملClassification of Iranian traditional musical modes (DASTGÄH) with artificial neural network
The concept of Iranian traditional musical modes, namely DASTGÄH, is the basis for the traditional music system. The concept introduces seven DASTGÄHs. It is not an easy process to distinguish these modes and such practice is commonly performed by an experienced person in this field. Apparently, applying artificial intelligence to do such classification requires a combination of the basic infor...
