Application to photo-z! - Photometric redshift introductory! - Self Organizing Map (SOM)! - Neural Network (NN) and Deep Learning (DL)!! Beyond the photo-z! - Ability and limitation clustering redshift!! Summary
3 What is Machine Learning?
4 Machine Learning in Astrophysics Examples! - galaxy formation history (Harshil+ 2016)! - source classification from image (Salzberg+ 1995)! - photometric redshift (Sadeh+ 2015, Collister & Lahav 2004)! -!! ML can! - extract information from high-dimensional data (data mining)! - deal with general properties of the data, no physical interpretation is required.! - be suited for handle huge (both in size and dimension) and complicated data sets.
5 Hyper Suprime-Cam ~Subaru Strategic Program~ HSC is installed on the prime focus of Subaru Telescope! HSC wide:1,400 deg 2, deep: 25deg 2, udeep: 5deg 2! Since Feb. 2014, 300nights over 5 years are awarded! Superb observation conditions: seeing~0.7, ~100% transparency! Wide field of view (9 moons in one shot)! Science goals! - weak lensing (w~5%), strong lensing, cluster science, galaxy evolution, AGN, Supernovae, solar system, galactic archeology! Full overlap with SDSS/BOSS and COSMOS/SXDS! Other overlapped surveys:! - VVDS, GAMA, AEGIS, HectoMAP, CFHT, VIKING, UKIDS, Spitzer, ACTPol, XMM, and e-rosita (Russia).! The first data release will be in 2017 Feb.! The first year papers will appear in PASJ special issue in Feb(?)!
6 Hyper Suprime-Cam ~SSP updates~ We have finished 240 deg2 with g,r,i,z and Y bands to full depths! The first DR includes 100 deg2 full depth full color image/catalogs, observed by the end of Nov ! Various high-level catalogs (e.g. shear catalog, photo-z catalog, cluster catalog ) will also be available
7 Photometric Redshift Introductory
8 Why we need photometric redshift (photo-z)? For cosmic shear, DE is sensitive to both cosmological distance and growth of structure P apple (`) = mh 4 0 Z 0 H d a 2 P ` f K ( ) ; applez H d 0 n( 0 ) f K( 0 ) f K ( 0 ) 2 Okebe & Smith 2016 For cluster lensing, foreground galaxies may bring signal dilution galaxy studies, AGN sciences, SNe also rely on the photo-z.
9 What we are required for WL? Precise image reduction from the raw data!! Very precise measurement of the shape of the galaxies (WL is the deformation of galaxies by gravity : modify galaxies ellipticity by 10-4 )!! Very precise measurement of the distance to the lensed galaxies.
10 Spectra of typical galaxies Elliptical fν(λ) Lyman break Spiral 4000A break Balmer break observed wavelength [Å] Taking spectra is observationally expensive!
11 Spectra of typical galaxies galaxy spectrum depends on redshift! age of the galaxy! metallicity of the galaxy! SF history of the galaxy! own dust attenuation! reddening by Milky way! f ( obs )=f [(1 + z) emt ; t, Z,, A V, ] In a traditional template fitting (TF) method, we find the optimal solution with the synthetic spectrum of galaxies given all these are free parameters (e.g. minimum chi-square)
12 Photometric redshift Extracted physical quantities from CCD images
13 Drawback of the Photo-z
14 Drawback of the Photo-z cntd. (SED)!! SED! ->!
15 Photo-z estimation with ML in HSC Photo-z (~ 00s)! In HSC, we have! Neural Network / DL (Sogo Mineo : NAOJ)! k-nearest Neighbor (Jean Coupon : Geneva)! Polynomial Fit (Bau-ching Hseih : ASIAA)! Random Forest / Self Organizing Map / DL (AN : Nagoya)! Hybrid of ML and template fitting (Joshua Speagle : Harvard)! Authentic template fitting (Masayuki Tanaka : NAOJ)!
16 Self Organizing Map (SOM) SOM is un-supervised machine learning algorithm! SOM is used for classifying the data into small group having similar features! Procedures are as follows!!!! - Decide geometry and resolution of the map (in two dimension)! - Let xi be the data vector for i-th galaxy xi ={xi1, xi2, xi3,., xin}! - Each pixel of map has a weight vector wk ={wk1, wk2, wk3,., wkn}! - Initial value (vector) of the map is random distribution! - Then, begin iteration! Find the closest pixel for each galaxy using (weighted)euclidean distance,! 2v 3! ux! 4t N (x ij w kj ) 2 Best cell! 5 (k=k0) d best i =min k j update the pixel vector by (k0 is the index of best cell)! w k (t + 1) = w k (t)+ (t)e D2 (k,k 0 )/ 2 (t) Repeat the process for the next object (t t+1)! 2 ij k-th cell update influenced region σ(t) and amount α(t) are linearly decreased! Repeat the whole process (typically O(100) times) D(k,k0)
17 Self Organizing Map (SOM) illustrative Random distribution Find the best cell for the first galaxy list of galaxies = {,,,,,., } Best matched cell update the value of the best cell and vicinities with weight repeat for all galaxies Gaussian/Tophat window narrow the influenced region Next galaxy list of galaxies = {,,,,,., }
18 k-fold cross validation optimal ML upon human coaching 1 Test set Validation set training set k 2 Test set Validation set training set Test set Training set validation set ML hyper parameters Number of random sampling?! Number of pixels?! Number of iterations? Number of neighbors?! Weighted scheme?! Which attributes are used?! Divide the calibration sample into Test / Validation / Training set! Test data should be untouched! Optimize hyper parameters for given realization of cross-validation set! Take median (or mean, or best) hyper parameters to fix the configuration of ML! Test data is then used for performance check.
19 Training data and Target data fluxes measured with 5 broadband filters (cmodel flux)! flux ratios, i.e. color (5C2=10)! another flux systems : PSF, dev.+exp., aperture (optional)! second order moment -> size and ellipticity (optional)! Their measurement errors (emulated to wide depth)! COSMOS 30-band photo-z, spec-z, grism-z (Training set only) bright mag-limited spec-z s faint spec-z s +COSMOS
20 Results HSC DR1 data Training sample 1. Using Training set (color=mean redshift), we make one realization of SOM.! 2. Then find the best matched cell for Test set (color=mean redshift: in reality they are unknown)! 3. For given galaxy, we assign the redshift from the training set averaged within the best matched cell.! 4. Repeat this for N_bootstrapped x N_MCed random samples to get PDF (able to properly propagate the photometric errors) Test sample PRELIMI NARY

23 Photo-z with Deep-Learning Extract physical quantities from CCD images fluxes for 5 filters size of galaxies small dust extinction! small ellipticity large dust extinction! large ellipticity shape of galaxies light profile galaxy Break the degeneracy between dust-reddening and redshift by the ellipticity of galaxies. some of the information is discarded Barden M. Tanaka AN+ in prep. To obtain the most accurate photo-z ever.! How does the information not quantified impact the photo-z accuracies?
24 Beyond the photo-z clustering-z The spatial correlation between the sample with known redshifts and unknown redshift sample tells us the fractional number of objects at the given redshift ranges. 1 + wsp (zs, rp ) = hnspecz ( 0, zs )nphoto ( 0 + )i =rp Z dn drw (r)wsp (zs, r) / (zs ) dz E Medezinski, AN+ in prep. HSC galaxies (0.5 < zp < 0.7) are cross correlated with BOSS spec-z sample(lowz +CMASS+QSO) This method evaluates the relevance of the photo-z s based on the completely independent information. e.g.) Newman 2008, Menard+2013, etc.
25 Application (1) -Rahman, Menard et al. 2015Testing procedures 1. take subsample from full spec-z sample! 2. subsample is divided into 1400 redshift bins(δz=8e-4)! 3. sub-divided subsample is cross-correlated with full sample to get dn/dz via cluster-z The clustering-z seems to work for the subsample in the color-space.
26 For better prediction clustering-z with SOM Galaxies in each SOM cell should have similar properties in terms of color, flux, size, etc and thus are expected to lie in the similar redshift. AN, J. Speagle+ in prep. Totally independent way to measure the redshift of individual galaxy! Limitation = unknown galaxy bias C sp `,i = Z = b s = d W s,i( )W p ( ) 2 P sp (k = `/ ) 1 dn H( z i ) ( z i ) dz ( z i)b s ( z i )b p ( z i )P [k = `/ ( z i )] q C ss `,i /P Bias for spec-z sample : from autocorrelation meas.! Bias for unknown sample : assumption Absolute value is not required but only the redshift evolution is important.
27 Application (2) -contamination rate for g-lensingz_clusters [0.4, 0.6] Elinor Medezinski Okabe-method to define the background sample Ni w (zi ) / bp (zi )bs (zi ) zi Need to assume full function of bp(z) but! free from noisy signal from higher-z s
28 Summary Photo-z is a tool for cosmology and galaxy sciences! HSC data will be soon public (Feb. 2017)! Machine Learning opens new windows not only for the photo-z measurement but also various astrophysical data analysis and will help understand the physics behind.! Basically SOM is a method to classify data into small segments consist of similar physical properties.! We expect Deep Learning to discover new quantities to characterize photo-zs.! Cluster-z is a completely independent and complementary method to measure the redshift but limitation lies in understanding the unknown galaxy bias.
