We introduce a new machine learning based technique to detect exoplanets using the transit method. Machine learning and deep learning techniques have proven to be broadly applicable in various scientific research areas. We aim to exploit some of these methods to improve the conventional algorithm based approaches presently used in astrophysics to detect exoplanets. Using the time-series analysis library TSFresh to analyse light curves, we extracted 789 features from each curve, which capture the information about the characteristics of a light curve. We then used these features to train a gradient boosting classifier using the machine learning tool lightgbm. This approach was tested on simulated data, which showed that is more effective than the conventional box least squares fitting (BLS) method. We further found that our method produced comparable results to existing state-of-the-art deep learning models, while being much more computationally efficient and without needing folded and secondary views of the light curves. For Kepler data, the method is able to predict a planet with an AUC of 0.948, so that 94.8 per cent of the true planet signals are ranked higher than non-planet signals. The resulting recall is 0.96, so that 96 per cent of real planets are classified as planets. For the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data, we found our method can classify light curves with an accuracy of 0.98, and is able to identify planets with a recall of 0.82 at a precision of 0.63.

一种使用机器学习(ML)方法的新型人工智能(AI)技术结合了由ThetaRay,Inc.应用于NASA的凌日系外行星勘测卫星(TESS)数据集,以识别系外行星候选者。AI/ML ThetaRay系统最初使用开普勒系外行星数据进行训练,并在应用于TESS数据之前使用确认的系外行星进行验证。数据的现有和新特征基于各种观测参数,通过采用半监督和无监督机器学习技术构建并用于AI/ML分析。通过将ThetaRay系统应用于TESS任务产生的10,803个阈值交叉事件(TCEs)的光变曲线,该算法从Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes获得,该算法产生了约50个目标以供进一步分析,我们通过进一步的人工审查发现了三个新的系外行星候选者。这项研究首次展示了将特定的基于AI/ML的方法成功应用于大型天体物理数据集,以快速自动分类TCE。
