A machine-learning view of our Milky Way

Event Start:
2018-11-05T15:00:00
Event End:
2018-11-05T16:00:00
Event Information:

Every night, telescopes around the world obtain a flood of new data as parts of deep and wide surveys. This amount of data will steeply rise once upcoming sureys such as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), which will image the entire visible sky every few nights, start their operation. To investigate this huge amount of data, machine-learning algorithms are absolutely necessary for image analysis, classification of sources, time-series analysis and also structure finding.
