Abstract
- We use the Galaxy Morphology Posterior Estimation Network (GaMPEN) to estimate morphological parameters and associated uncertainties for ∼8 million galaxies in the Hyper Suprime-Cam Wide survey with z ≤ 0.75 and m ≤ 23. GaMPEN is a machine-learning framework that estimates Bayesian posteriors for a galaxy’s bulge-to-total light ratio ( L _B / L _T ), effective radius ( R _e ), and flux ( F ). By first training on simulations of galaxies and then applying transfer learning using real data, we trained GaMPEN with
