We present a comprehensive statistical analysis of the properties of Type Ia SN light curves in the near infrared using recent data from PAIRITEL and the literature. We construct a hierarchical Bayesian framework, incorporating several…

In recent years, wide-field sky surveys providing deep multi-band imaging have presented a new path for indirectly characterizing the progenitor populations of core-collapse supernovae (SN): systematic light curve studies. We assemble a set…

We present a novel method to produce empirical generative models of all kinds of astronomical transients from datasets of unlabeled light curves. Our hybrid model, that we call ParSNIP, uses a neural network to model the unknown intrinsic…

In the era of large all-sky surveys, there will be a need for rapid, automatic classifications of newly discovered transient objects. Our focus here is the classification of supernovae (SNe). We consider random forest machine learning…

We have constructed a comprehensive statistical model for Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) light curves spanning optical through near infrared (NIR) data. A hierarchical framework coherently models multiple random and uncertain effects, including…

Automated classification of supernovae (SNe) based on optical photometric light curve information is essential in the upcoming era of wide-field time domain surveys, such as the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) conducted by the Rubin…

With large numbers of transients discovered by current and future imaging surveys, machine learning is increasingly applied to light curve and host galaxy properties to select events for follow-up. However, finding rare types of transients…

We use the BayeSN hierarchical probabilistic SED model to analyse the optical-NIR ($BVriYJH$) light curves of 86 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the Carnegie Supernova Project to investigate the SN Ia host galaxy dust law distribution and…

Time domain surveys such as the Vera C. Rubin Observatory are projected to annually discover millions of astronomical transients. This and complementary programs demand fast, automated methods to constrain the physical properties of the…

With the upcoming Vera C.~Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), it is expected that only $\sim 0.1\%$ of all transients will be classified spectroscopically. To conduct studies of rare transients, such as Type I…

Photometric data-driven classification of supernovae becomes a challenge due to the appearance of real-time processing of big data in astronomy. Recent studies have demonstrated the superior quality of solutions based on various machine…

We investigate the identification of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe I) using a photometric analysis, without including an arbitrary magnitude threshold. We assemble a homogeneous sample of previously classified SLSNe I from…

The advancement of technology has resulted in a rapid increase in supernova (SN) discoveries. The Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) transient survey, conducted from fall 2016 through spring 2017, yielded 1824 SN candidates. This gave rise to…

Large modern surveys require efficient review of data in order to find transient sources such as supernovae, and to distinguish such sources from artefacts and noise. Much effort has been put into the development of automatic algorithms,…

Photometric classification of supernovae (SNe) is imperative as recent and upcoming optical time-domain surveys, such as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), overwhelm the available resources for spectrosopic follow-up. Here we…

New time-domain surveys, such as the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), will observe millions of transient alerts each night, making standard approaches of visually identifying new and interesting transients…

Large time-domain sky surveys generate extensive multi-year catalogs of light curves in which scientifically valuable transients, such as supernovae (SNe), are vastly outnumbered by artifacts and routine star variability. While supervised…

Within a supervised classification framework, labeled data are used to learn classifier parameters. Prior to that, it is generally required to perform dimensionality reduction via feature extraction. These preprocessing steps have motivated…

We explore and demonstrate the capabilities of LSST to study Type I superluminous supernovae (SLSNe). We first fit the light curves of 58 known SLSNe at z~0.1-1.6, using an analytical magnetar spin-down model implemented in MOSFiT. We then…

Identification of anomalous light curves within time-domain surveys is often challenging. In addition, with the growing number of wide-field surveys and the volume of data produced exceeding astronomers ability for manual evaluation,…
