We explore the efficacy of using a novel activation function in Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) in characterizing exoplanets into different classes. We call this Saha-Bora Activation Function (SBAF) as the motivation is derived from long standing understanding of using advanced calculus in modeling habitability score …

We present analytical exploration of novel activation functions as consequence of integration of several ideas leading to implementation and subsequent use in habitability classification of exoplanets. Neural networks, although a powerful engine in supervised methods, often require expensive tuning efforts for optimize…

We describe a method for removing the effect of confounders in order to reconstruct a latent quantity of interest. The method, referred to as half-sibling regression, is inspired by recent work in causal inference using additive noise models. We provide a theoretical justification and illustrate the potential of the me…
In this study we introduce a new technique for symbolic regression that guarantees global optimality. This is achieved by formulating a mixed integer non-linear program (MINLP) whose solution is a symbolic mathematical expression of minimum complexity that explains the observations. We demonstrate our approach by redis…
Despite their successes in the field of self-learning AI, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) suffer from having too many trainable parameters, impacting computational performance. Several approaches have been proposed to reduce the number of parameters in the visual domain, the Inception architecture [Szegedy et al.,…
GPRNs accurately model stellar activity affecting RV measurements of exoplanets.
problem Stellar activity limits detection and characterisation of exoplanets.
method Gaussian Process Regression Networks (GPRNs) for joint analysis of RV data and stellar activity indicators.
result GPRNs accurately describe solar RV data, correlating with activity at separations of a few days.
Transformer model removes noise from light curves efficiently.
problem Challenges in processing astrophysical light curves due to noise.
method Denoising Time Series Transformer (DTST) model trained with masked objective.
result DTST model excels at removing noise and outliers in time series datasets.
The challenge of efficiently identifying anomalies in data sequences is an important statistical problem that now arises in many applications. Whilst there has been substantial work aimed at making statistical analyses robust to outliers, or point anomalies, there has been much less work on detecting anomalous segments…
The paper discusses the impact of prior densities on Bayesian model selection.
problem The sensitivity of marginal likelihood to prior choice in Bayesian model selection.
method Analyzes the role of prior densities in model selection, discusses improper priors, and proposes solutions.
result Marginal likelihood can be sensitive to prior choice, but improper priors can still be used with caution.
