Identifying Exoplanets with Deep Learning. V. Improved Light Curve Classification for TESS Full Frame Image Observations

E. Tey, D. Moldovan, et al.

Discover the groundbreaking Astronet-Triage-v2, a deep learning marvel developed by a talented team including Evan Tey, Dan Moldovan, and Michelle Kunimoto. This model excels in classifying TESS light curves to identify exoplanets with astonishing accuracy—99.6% recall and 75.7% precision. It's already improving our quest for new planetary candidates!

Abstract
This paper presents Astronet-Triage-v2, an improved deep learning model for classifying light curves from the TESS mission to identify exoplanets. Using a large, manually reviewed dataset of light curves, Astronet-Triage-v2 achieves 99.6% recall and 75.7% precision in identifying transiting/eclipsing events on the test set. It shows a 4% improvement in AUC-PR over its predecessor, Astronet-Triage, and recovers more planet candidates from the TESS Object of Interest (TOI) catalog. The model is currently used in the TESS Quick-Look Pipeline.
