Spectrum denoising is an important procedure for large-scale spectroscopical surveys. This work proposes a novel stellar spectrum denoising method based on deep Bayesian modeling. The construction of our model includes a prior distribution for each stellar subclass, a spectrum generator and a flow-based noise model. Our method takes into account the noise correlation structure, and it is not susceptible to strong sky emission lines and cosmic rays. Moreover, it is able to naturally handle spectra with missing flux values without ad-hoc imputation. The proposed method is evaluated on real stellar spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) with a comprehensive list of common stellar subclasses and compared to the standard denoising auto-encoder. Our denoising method demonstrates superior performance to the standard denoising auto-encoder, in respect of denoising quality and missing flux imputation. It may be potentially helpful in improving the accuracy of the classification and physical parameter measurement of stars when applying our method during data preprocessing.

When applying the foreground removal methods to uncover the faint cosmological signal from the epoch of reionization (EoR), the foreground spectra are assumed to be smooth. However, this assumption can be seriously violated in practice since the unre
solved or mis-subtracted foreground sources, which are further complicated by the frequency-dependent beam effects of interferometers, will generate significant fluctuations along the frequency dimension. To address this issue, we propose a novel deep-learning-based method that uses a 9-layer convolutional denoising autoencoder (CDAE) to separate the EoR signal. After being trained on the SKA images simulated with realistic beam effects, the CDAE achieves excellent performance as the mean correlation coefficient ($bar{rho}$) between the reconstructed and input EoR signals reaches $0.929 pm 0.045$. In comparison, the two representative traditional methods, namely the polynomial fitting method and the continuous wavelet transform method, both have difficulties in modelling and removing the foreground emission complicated with the beam effects, yielding only $bar{rho}_{text{poly}} = 0.296 pm 0.121$ and $bar{rho}_{text{cwt}} = 0.198 pm 0.160$, respectively. We conclude that, by hierarchically learning sophisticated features through multiple convolutional layers, the CDAE is a powerful tool that can be used to overcome the complicated beam effects and accurately separate the EoR signal. Our results also exhibit the great potential of deep-learning-based methods in future EoR experiments.
The feature map obtained from the denoising autoencoder (DAE) is investigated by determining transportation dynamics of the DAE, which is a cornerstone for deep learning. Despite the rapid development in its application, deep neural networks remain a
nalytically unexplained, because the feature maps are nested and parameters are not faithful. In this paper, we address the problem of the formulation of nested complex of parameters by regarding the feature map as a transport map. Even when a feature map has different dimensions between input and output, we can regard it as a transportation map by considering that both the input and output spaces are embedded in a common high-dimensional space. In addition, the trajectory is a geometric object and thus, is independent of parameterization. In this manner, transportation can be regarded as a universal character of deep neural networks. By determining and analyzing the transportation dynamics, we can understand the behavior of a deep neural network. In this paper, we investigate a fundamental case of deep neural networks: the DAE. We derive the transport map of the DAE, and reveal that the infinitely deep DAE transports mass to decrease a certain quantity, such as entropy, of the data distribution. These results though analytically simple, shed light on the correspondence between deep neural networks and the Wasserstein gradient flows.
We announce ChromaStarPy, an integrated general stellar atmospheric modeling and spectrum synthesis code written entirely in python V. 3. ChromaStarPy is a direct port of the ChromaStarServer (CSServ) Java modeling code described in earlier papers in
this series, and many of the associated JavaScript (JS) post-processing procedures have been ported and incorporated into CSPy so that students have access to ready-made data products. A python integrated development environment (IDE) allows a student in a more advanced course to experiment with the code and to graphically visualize intermediate and final results, ad hoc, as they are running it. CSPy allows students and researchers to compare modeled to observed spectra in the same IDE in which they are processing observational data, while having complete control over the stellar parameters affecting the synthetic spectra. We also take the opportunity to describe improvements that have been made to the related codes, ChromaStar (CS), CSServ and ChromaStarDB (CSDB) that, where relevant, have also been incorporated into CSPy. The application may be found at the home page of the OpenStars project: http://www.ap.smu.ca/~ishort/OpenStars/ .
We present a Bayesian-odds-ratio-based algorithm for detecting stellar flares in light curve data. We assume flares are described by a model in which there is a rapid rise with a half-Gaussian profile, followed by an exponential decay. Our signal mod
el also contains a polynomial background model. This is required to fit underlying light curve variations that are expected in the data, which could otherwise partially mimic a flare. We characterise the false alarm probability and efficiency of this method and compare it with a simpler thresholding method based on that used in Walkowicz et al (2011). We find our method has a significant increase in detection efficiency for low signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) flares. For a conservative false alarm probability our method can detect 95% of flares with S/N less than ~20, as compared to S/N of ~25 for the simpler method. As an example we have applied our method to a selection of stars in Kepler Quarter 1 data. The method finds 687 flaring stars with a total of 1873 flares after vetos have been applied. For these flares we have characterised their durations and and signal-to-noise ratios.
A new method for analyzing the returns of the custom-made micro-LIDAR system, which is operated along with the two MAGIC telescopes, allows to apply atmospheric corrections in the MAGIC data analysis chain. Such corrections make it possible to extend
the effective observation time of MAGIC under adverse atmospheric conditions and reduce the systematic errors of energy and flux in the data analysis. LIDAR provides a range-resolved atmospheric backscatter profile from which the extinction of Cherenkov light from air shower events can be estimated. Knowledge of the extinction can allow to reconstruct the true image parameters, including energy and flux. Our final goal is to recover the source-intrinsic energy spectrum also for data affected by atmospheric extinction from aerosol layers, such as clouds.
