NED中基于规则的超大型目录交叉匹配

Rule-based Cross-matching of Very Large Catalogs in NED

摘要:

NASA/IPAC河外星系数据库(NED)部署了一种新的基于规则的交叉匹配算法,称为匹配专家(MatchEx),能够交叉匹配具有超过1000万个对象的超大型目录(VLC)。MatchEx超越了传统的基于位置的交叉匹配算法,它使用其他可用数据和专家逻辑来确定哪个候选匹配是最好的。此外,源的局部背景密度被用来确定和最小化的假阳性匹配率和估计匹配的完整性。每个匹配决策的逻辑结果和统计概率存储在数据库中,并且可以用于调整算法和调整匹配参数阈值。对于我们的第一次生产运行,我们交叉匹配了GALEX全天巡天目录(GASC),其中包含近4000万个NUV检测到的源,与NED中的1.8亿个对象的目录。在7.5弧秒半径内为每个GASC源确定候选匹配。这些候选人被过滤基于位置的匹配概率,以及其他标准,包括对象类型和对象名称。我们估计匹配完整性为97.6%,匹配准确率为99.75%。MatchEx被用于将超过20亿个目录源与NED交叉匹配,包括Spitzer Source List、2 MASS Point-Source Catalog、AllWISE和SDSS DR 10。它还将加快作为NED文献管道的一部分的资源的常规交叉匹配。

英文摘要:

The NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) has deployed a new rule-based cross-matching algorithm called Match Expert (MatchEx), capable of cross-matching very large catalogs (VLCs) with >10 million objects. MatchEx goes beyond traditional position-based cross-matching algorithms by using other available data together with expert logic to determine which candidate match is the best. Furthermore, the local background density of sources is used to determine and minimize the false-positive match rate and to estimate match completeness. The logical outcome and statistical probability of each match decision is stored in the database, and may be used to tune the algorithm and adjust match parameter thresholds. For our first production run, we cross-matched the GALEX All Sky Survey Catalog (GASC), containing nearly 40 million NUV-detected sources, against a directory of 180 million objects in NED. Candidate matches were identified for each GASC source within a 7.5 arcsecond radius. These candidates were filtered on position-based matching probability, and on other criteria including object type and object name. We estimate a match completeness of 97.6% and a match accuracy of 99.75%. MatchEx is being used to cross-match over 2 billion catalog sources to NED, including the Spitzer Source List, the 2MASS Point-Source Catalog, AllWISE, and SDSS DR 10. It will also speed up routine cross-matching of sources as part of the NED literature pipeline.
