Size Functions In Galaxy Morphology Classification
This paper introduces the concept of size functions in galaxy morphology classification, which are geometrical-topological shape descriptors which can be tailor-made to describe the shapes of objects of interest. For the three main classes of galaxies obtained from the Hubble classification scheme, namely, elliptical, spiral and lenticular, the size functions are obtained from two sets of measu...
متن کاملGalaxy Morphology Classification
We apply machine learning techniques to the problem of galaxy morphology classification. We use both supervised and unsupervised methods to study the Galaxy Zoo dataset of 61,578 pre-classified galaxies. After image pre-processing, we perform multi-class classification using the following algorithms: one-vs-all SVM with an RBF kernel, decision tree, random forest, AdaBoost classifier, and KNN. ...
متن کاملMathematical Morphology: Star/Galaxy Differentiation & Galaxy Morphology Classification
We present an application of Mathematical Morphology (MM) for the classification of astronomical objects, both for star/galaxy differentiation and galaxy morphology classification. We demonstrate that, for CCD images, 99.3 ± 3.8% of galaxies can be separated from stars using MM, with 19.4 ± 7.9% of the stars being misclassified. We demonstrate that, for photographic plate images, the number of ...
متن کاملMachine Learning for Galaxy Morphology Classification
In this work, decision tree learning algorithms and fuzzy inferencing systems are applied for galaxy morphology classification. In particular, the CART, the C4.5, the Random Forest and fuzzy logic algorithms are studied and reliable classifiers are developed to distinguish between spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies or star/unknown galactic objects. Morphology information for the training and ...
متن کاملGalaxy Morphology without Classification : Self Organizing Maps
We examine a general framework for visualizing datasets of high (> 2) dimensionality, and demonstrate it using the morphology of galaxies at moderate redshifts. The distributions of various populations of such galaxies are examined in a space spanned by four purely morphological parameters. Galaxy images are taken from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) in th...
