Compared with automatic speech recognition (ASR), the human auditory system is more adept at handling noise-adverse situations, including environmental noise and channel distortion. To mimic this adeptness, auditory models have been widely…

Approximations based on random Fourier features have recently emerged as an efficient and formally consistent methodology to design large-scale kernel machines. By expressing the kernel as a Fourier expansion, features are generated based…

We present KaRMMa 2.0, an updated version of the mass map reconstruction code introduced in Fiedorowicz et al. (2022). KaRMMa is a full-sky Bayesian algorithm for reconstructing weak lensing mass maps from shear data. It forward-models the…

Understanding the faint end of quasar luminosity function at a high redshift is important since the number density of faint quasars is a critical element in constraining ultraviolet (UV) photon budgets for ionizing the intergalactic medium…

In this investigation we focus on the problem of mapping the ground reflectivity with multiple laser scanners mounted on mobile robots/vehicles. The problem originates because regions of the ground become populated with a varying number of…

The 100,000 spectra from the 2 degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) in the 100k Public Data Release represent the largest single compilation of galaxy spectra available. By virtue of its sheer size and the properties of the…

This work investigates symbolic regression (SR) as an interpretable alternative to black-box machine learning for the classification of stars, galaxies, and quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 17 (SDSS DR17). We conduct a…

The number of known, bright ($i<18$), high-redshift ($z>2.5$) QSOs in the Southern Hemisphere is considerably lower than the corresponding number in the Northern Hemisphere due to the lack of multi-wavelength surveys at $\delta<0$. Recent…

We introduce MOMO, the first multi-sensor foundation model for Mars remote sensing. MOMO uses model merge to integrate representations learned independently from three key Martian sensors (HiRISE, CTX, and THEMIS), spanning resolutions from…

Upcoming synoptic surveys are set to generate an unprecedented amount of data. This requires an automatic framework that can quickly and efficiently provide classification labels for several new object classification challenges. Using data…

We report the discovery of 31 new redshifted broad absorption line quasars (RSBALs) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The number of previously known such objects is 19. The identification of the new objects was enabled by…

We present the discovery and preliminary characterization of a gravitationally lensed quasar with a source redshift $z_{s}=2.74$ and image separation of $2.9"$ lensed by a foreground $z_{l}=0.40$ elliptical galaxy. Since the images of…

Accurate mapping of forests is critical for forest management and carbon stocks monitoring. Deep learning is becoming more popular in Earth Observation (EO), however, the availability of reference data limits its potential in wide-area…

Feature selection is important for modeling high-dimensional data, where the number of variables can be much larger than the sample size. In this paper, we develop a support detection and root finding procedure to learn the high dimensional…

Recent advances in the use of High-Resolution Cross-Correlation Spectroscopy (HRCCS) to detect molecular species in exoplanet atmospheres, presents a new challenge for the accuracy of reference spectroscopic line lists. While parent…

Millions of quasar spectra will be collected by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), leading to a four-fold increase in the number of known quasars. High accuracy quasar classification is essential to tighten constraints on…

Isotopic composition measurements of singly charged cosmic rays (CR) provide essential insights into CR transport in the Galaxy. The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) can identify singly charged isotopes up to about 10 GeV/n. However,…

We show that bringing intermediate layers' representations of two augmented versions of an image closer together in self-supervised learning helps to improve the momentum contrastive (MoCo) method. To this end, in addition to the…

We introduce a probabilistic approach to select 6<z<8 quasar candidates for spectroscopic follow-up, which is based on density estimation in the high-dimensional space inhabited by the optical and near-infrared photometry. Density…

In order to reach the required performance of Stage-III and IV weak lensing surveys, cosmic shear measurements have to rely on external simulations to calibrate residual biases. Over the years, several techniques have been developed to…
