We proposed a machine learning approach to identify and distinguish dusty stellar sources employing supervised and unsupervised methods and categorizing point sources, mainly evolved stars, using photometric and spectroscopic data collected…

We study star formation over 12 Gyr using pop-cosmos, a generative model trained on 26-band photometry of 420,000 COSMOS2020 galaxies (IRAC Ch.1 $<26$). The model learns distributions over 16 SPS parameters via score-based diffusion,…

A method for identification of stellar complexes in M33 is applied. Several OB associations form a stellar complex with mean size of 0.3 - 1 kpc. We apply a correlation technique to compare different stellar populations in M33. Our results…

Context: The identification and characterisation of populations of young massive stars in (giant) HII regions provides important constraints on i) the formation process of massive stars and their early feedback on the environment, and ii)…

Differences in metallicity between the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) offer an opportunity to examine whether environmental metallicity affects the performance of machine learning models in classifying…

In this paper we undertake a study of the 21 square degree SMOG field, a Spitzer cryogenic mission Legacy program to map a region of the outer Milky Way towards the Perseus and Outer spiral arms with the IRAC and MIPS instruments. We…
