Leveraging Multimodality for Real-Time Classification of Transients and Variables found by the Zwicky Transient Facility

arXiv:2607. 00228v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern time-domain surveys such as the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) generate hundreds of thousands of alerts each night, making real-time decisions for follow-up observations a central challenge in time-domain astronomy.

Deep Learning Detection of Beyond-General-Relativity Deviations in Gravitational-Wave Signals: A Detection-Threshold Study with Real LIGO Noise

The paper investigates machine‑learning detection of controlled deviations from General Relativity in gravitational‑wave signals. Using a hybrid classifier that combines a one‑dimensional convolutional neural network with ten hand‑crafted waveform statistics, the authors train on General‑Relativistic and modified waveforms and test on a deviation type not seen during training. They find a detection threshold at a dimensionless strength coefficient β ≈ 0.25 when using real GW150914 strain and real H1 detector noise, with accuracy improving from chance at β ≤ 0.2 to perfect classification at β ≥ 0.5.
