SDSS-DR12 Bulk Stellar Spectral Classification: Artificial Neural Networks Approach [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2016
This paper explores the application of Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Kmeans clustering as tools for automated classification of massive stellar spectra.

KEPLERINPUT CATALOG: PHOTOMETRIC CALIBRATION AND STELLAR CLASSIFICATION [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2011
We describe the photometric calibration and stellar classification methods used to produce the Kepler Input Catalog (KIC). The KIC is a catalog containing photometric and physical data for sources in the Kepler Mission field of view; it is used by the mission to select optimal targets.

NutMaat: A Python package for stellar spectral classification on the MK system [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv
Stellar spectral classification according to the Morgan-Keenan (MK) system remains fundamental to astrophysical studies, yet modern surveys require automated, scalable tools. We present NutMaat, a Python-based package inspired by MKCLASS, designed to automate MK classification while addressing scalability and usability limitations.

Classification of large-scale stellar spectra based on the non-linearly assembling learning machine [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2015
An important problem to be solved of traditional classification methods is they cannot deal with large-scale classification because of very high time complexity. In order to solve above problem, inspired by the thinking of collaborative management, the non-

Automated stellar classification for large surveys: a review of methods and results [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2001
Current and future large astronomical surveys will yield multiparameter databases on millions or even billions of objects. The scientific exploitation of these will require powerful, robust, and automated classification tools tailored to the specific survey.

Machine Learning Techniques for Stellar Light Curve Classification [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2018
AbstractWe apply machine learning techniques in an attempt to predict and classify stellar properties from noisy and sparse time-series data. We preprocessed over 94 GB ofKeplerlight curves from the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST) to classify according to 10 distinct physical properties using both representation learning and feature ...

Stellar classification from single-band imaging using machine learning [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2016
Information on the spectral types of stars is of great interest in view of the exploitation of space-based imaging surveys. In this article, we investigate the classification of stars into spectral types using only the shape of their diffraction pattern ...

Commission 29. (Stellar Classification.) [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1933
The Commission held two meetings and the time was taken up almost entirely in a discussion of stellar classification.Dr J. S. Plaskett moved, seconded by Miss Payne, that a sub-committee be appointed to consider the classification of Wolf Rayet and related spectra.The committee was appointed as follows: Miss C. H. Payne, Prof. H. H. Plaskett, Dr C.

A machine-vision method for automatic classification of stellar halo substructure [PDF]

open access: bronzeMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Tidal debris structures formed from disrupted satellites contain important clues about the assembly histories of galaxies. To date, studies of these structures have been hampered by reliance on by-eye identification and morphological classification ...

Application of self-organizing map to stellar spectral classifications [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2011
We present an automatic, fast, accurate and robust method of classifying astronomical objects. The Self Organizing Map (SOM) as an unsupervised Artificial Neural Network (ANN) algorithm is used for classification of stellar spectra of stars. The SOM is used to make clusters of different spectral classes of Jacoby, Hunter and Christian (JHC) library ...
