摘要:

测量星系、恒星和类星体等宇宙学源的距离在现代宇宙学中起着越来越重要的作用。获得光谱,然后计算红移作为距离指标,可以立即对这些物体进行分类。只要光谱观测对许多星系不可用,并且测量红移的过程对于大样本来说是耗时且不可行的,机器学习(ML)方法可以应用于从不同特征(包括光度颜色)确定星系的红移。本文利用斯隆数字巡天(SDSS)星表中的通量星等,开发了两种ML回归算法(决策树和随机森林),以颜色指数作为输入特征来估计红移。我们发现,随机森林算法产生的红移预测的最佳结果,它将进一步改善时,数据集被限制到一个子集与z $\le$ 2给出归一化的标准差$\overline{ΔZ}_{\text {norm}}=0.005$和标准差$σ_{Δz}=0.12$。这项工作显示了极大的潜力,使用ML方法来确定遥远的源的光度红移。

英文摘要:

Measuring distances of cosmological sources such as galaxies, stars and quasars plays an increasingly critical role in modern cosmology. Obtaining the optical spectrum and consequently calculating the redshift as a distance indicator could instantly classify these objects. As long as spectroscopic observations are not available for many galaxies and the process of measuring the redshift is time-consuming and infeasible for large samples, machine learning (ML) approaches could be applied to determine the redshifts of galaxies from different features including their photometric colors. In this paper, by using the flux magnitudes from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) catalog, we develop two ML regression algorithms (Decision Tree and Random Forest) for estimating the redshifts taking color indices as input features. We find that the Random Forest algorithm produces the optimum result for the redshift prediction, and it will be further improved when the dataset is limited to a subset with z $\le$ 2 giving the normalised standard deviation $\overline{ΔZ}_{\text {norm}}=0.005$ and the standard deviation $σ_{Δz}=0.12$. This work shows a great potential of using the ML approach to determine the photometric redshifts of distant sources.
