Machine learning helps the Breakthrough Listen SETI project: it reduced the number of candidates identified in a 480-hour-long dataset by a factor of 100. From this, 8 signals worthy of further analysis have been found. Ma et al.: nature.com/articles/s4155…
Are we alone in the universe? A team led by researchers at @UofT has figured out a new AI technique that could accelerate the search for extraterrestrial life - bringing us closer to answering this question! Published today in @NatureAstronomy. More: dunlap.utoronto.ca/ai-accelerate-…
Artificial intelligence seeks extraterrestrial intelligence. Breakthrough Listen develops a new machine learning system to search for potential signals from other civilizations. breakthroughinitiatives.org/news/41
Development of our new machine learning algorithm was led by @UofT undergraduate @peterma02 who started working with Berkeley SETI when he was in high school! astronomycommunity.nature.com/posts/how-a-de…
In Vancouver w/ @AdarKahiri @peterma02 remote working throughout July! If you're in the area, let's hang out! :)
Cool @kaggle notebook by @peterma02: "SETI Energy Detection" kaggle.com/petterma/seti-…
After reading 3 confusing papers on Pulsar searching, I finally implemented => Dedispersion, FFT and profile Folding from "scratch"... it's superrrrr slow but at least it worked!😅 Check it out: bit.ly/2ZLBKIi
Although slightly late, I'm up at 4:30am watching the last super moon transit my window. Still noticeably larger than last viewing tho 🌕 Coordinates~ Time: 4:39am EST Alt: 16°01 R.A: 15h 55.8m Dec: 18°46'
I am slowly losing my sanity from coding ML in FORTRAN on a light-themed editor. For my next trick, I'll be writing a quantum computing algo strictly in ancient Babylonian
[2:20 am] Checking out the moon and stargazing. Can't help but think how small and insignificant we are 🔭 Surprised how well the moon looked in my camera tonight! 🌔
