Next-generation 21cm observations will enable imaging of reionization on very large scales. These images will contain more astrophysical and cosmological information than the power spectrum, and hence providing an alternative way to constrain the contribution of different reionizing sources populations to cosmic reionization. Using Convolutional Neural Networks, we present a simple network architecture that is sufficient to discriminate between Galaxy-dominated versus AGN-dominated models, even in the presence of simulated noise from different experiments such as the HERA and SKA.

Upcoming 21cm surveys with the SKA1-LOW telescope will enable imaging of the neutral hydrogen distribution on cosmological scales in the early Universe. These surveys are expected to generate huge imaging datasets that will encode more information th
an the power spectrum. This provides an alternative unique way to constrain the reionization history, which might break the degeneracy in the power spectral analysis. Using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), we create a fast estimator of the neutral fraction from the 21cm maps that are produced by our large semi-numerical simulation. Our estimator is able to efficiently recover the neutral fraction ($x_{rm HI}$) at several redshifts with a high accuracy of 99% as quantified by the coefficient of determination $R^{2}$. Adding the instrumental effects from the SKA design slightly increases the loss function, but nevertheless we are still able to recover the neutral fraction with a similar high accuracy of 98%, which is only 1 per cent less. While a weak dependence on redshift is observed, the accuracy increases rapidly with decreasing neutral fraction. This is due to the fact that the instrumental noise increases towards high redshift where the Universe is highly neutral. Our results show the promise of directly using 21cm-tomography to constrain the reionization history in a model independent way, complementing similar efforts, such as those of the optical depth measurements from the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) observations by {it Planck}.
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and star-forming galaxies are leading candidates for being the luminous sources that reionized our Universe. Next-generation 21cm surveys are promising to break degeneracies between a broad range of reionization models, h
ence revealing the nature of the source population. While many current efforts are focused on a measurement of the 21cm power spectrum, some surveys will also image the 21cm field during reionization. This provides further information with which to determine the nature of reionizing sources. We create a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) that is efficiently able to distinguish between 21cm maps that are produced by AGN versus galaxies scenarios with an accuracy of 92-100%, depending on redshift and neutral fraction range. An exception to this is when our Universe is highly ionized, since the source models give near-identical 21cm maps in that case. When adding thermal noise from typical 21cm experiments, the classification accuracy depends strongly on the effectiveness of foreground removal. Our results show that if foregrounds can be removed reasonably well, SKA, HERA and LOFAR should be able to discriminate between source models with greater accuracy at a fixed redshift. Only future SKA 21cm surveys are promising to break the degeneracies in the power spectral analysis.
Future Square Kilometre Array (SKA) surveys are expected to generate huge datasets of 21cm maps on cosmological scales from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). We assess the viability of exploiting machine learning techniques, namely, convolutional neur
al networks (CNN), to simultaneously estimate the astrophysical and cosmological parameters from 21cm maps from semi-numerical simulations. We further convert the simulated 21cm maps into SKA-like mock maps using the detailed SKA antennae distribution, thermal noise and a recipe for foreground cleaning. We successfully design two CNN architectures (VGGNet-like and ResNet-like) that are both efficiently able to extract simultaneously three astrophysical parameters, namely the photon escape fraction (f$_{rm esc}$), the ionizing emissivity power dependence on halo mass ($C_{rm ion}$) and the ionizing emissivity redshift evolution index ($D_{rm ion}$), and three cosmological parameters, namely the matter density parameter ($Omega_{m}$), the dimensionless Hubble constant ($h$), and the matter fluctuation amplitude ($sigma_{8}$), from 21cm maps at several redshifts. With the presence of noise from SKA, our designed CNNs are still able to recover these astrophysical and cosmological parameters with great accuracy ($R^{2} > 92%$), improving to $R^{2} > 99%$ towards low redshift and low neutral fraction values. Our results show that future 21cm observations can play a key role to break degeneracy between models and tightly constrain the astrophysical and cosmological parameters, using only few frequency channels.
We propose a deep learning analyzing technique with convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict the evolutionary track of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) from the 21-cm differential brightness temperature tomography images. We use 21cmFAST, a fast
semi-numerical cosmological 21-cm signal simulator, to produce mock 21-cm maps between $z=6 sim 13$. We then apply two observational effects into those 21-cm maps, such as instrumental noise and limit of (spatial and depth) resolution somewhat suitable for realistic choices of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA). We design our deep learning model with CNN to predict the sliced-averaged neutral hydrogen fraction from the given 21-cm map. The estimated neutral fraction from our CNN model has a great agreement with its true value even after coarsely smoothing with broad beamsize and frequency bandwidth, and also heavily covered by noise with narrow. Our results have shown that deep learning analyzing method has a large potential to efficiently reconstruct the EoR history from the 21-cm tomography surveys in future.
We compute the bispectra of the 21cm signal during the Epoch of Reionization for three different reionization scenarios that are based on a dark matter N-body simulation combined with a self-consistent, semi-numerical model of galaxy evolution and re
ionization. Our reionization scenarios differ in their trends of ionizing escape fractions ($f_mathrm{esc}$) with the underlying galaxy properties and cover the physically plausible range, i.e. $f_mathrm{esc}$ effectively decreasing, being constant, or increasing with halo mass. We find the 21cm bispectrum to be sensitive to the resulting ionization topologies that significantly differ in their size distribution of ionized and neutral regions throughout reionization. From squeezed to stretched triangles, the 21cm bispectra features a change of sign from negative to positive values, with ionized and neutral regions representing below-average and above-average concentrations contributing negatively and positively, respectively. The position of the change of sign provides a tracer of the size distribution of the ionized and neutral regions, and allows us to identify three major regimes that the 21cm bispectrum undergoes during reionization. In particular the regime during the early stages of reionization, where the 21cm bispectrum tracks the peak of the size distribution of the ionized regions, provides exciting prospects for pinning down reionization with the forthcoming Square Kilometre Array.
