SUPERVISED AUTOMATIC IDENTIFICATION OF EXTRAGALACTIC SOURCES IN THE WISExSUPERCOSMOS CATALOGUE
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2017, Vol 30, Issue
Abstract
We present new catalogue of ~8,500,000 extragalactic objects as a result of automatic classification of WISE and SuperCOSMOS (SCOS) cross-identification product. The main goal is to create a set of candidates in extragalactic objects due to colour (photometric) features through machine learning techniques. Extragalactic sources were separated from stars in high-dimensional colour space using Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. Construction of catalogue of the extragalactic objects is based on the four important procedures: 1. Cross-identification of the WISExSCOS catalogues. 2. Training set creation (Gaia DR1 and 2MASX\XSC data). 3. Feature engineering and colour-space constructing for further learning and classification. 4. Fine-tuning of SVM and separation and classification processes. In result we got high-accuracy (~98%) algorithm for extragalactic source identification in built colour space. Product of algorithm realization is presented as photometric catalogue of the extragalactic objects and can be used for further astronomical investigations.

SPECIFICATION OF LIMITS OF POSSIBLE EXISTENCE OF SATELLITES IN THE GRAVITATIONAL FIELD OF PLANETS
It is known that the satellites of the planets may exist in the area, which is bounded on one side by Rocha limit, on the other – Hill sphere. The article deals with the determination of the Rocha limits and Hill sphere...
MODELLING OF MOTION OF BODIES NEAR TRIANGULAR LAGRANGIAN POINTS
In this paper, we consider a system of three bodies connected by gravity, two of which are of comparable mass (the Sun and Jupiter), and the third is negligible and it is located in one of the triangular Lagrang...
THREE GIANTS – MEMBERS OF THE OPEN CLUSTER M 67
We determined the atmospheric parameters and chemical composition of the three giants, which are members of the open cluster M 67. The high resolution spectra (R = 60 000) were obtained with the echel...
LIGHT POLLUTION IN LEO-SATELLITE TRACKING
Because of the high level of the light pollution in Odessa city, only the observations of LEO (low Earth orbit)-satellites are performed in the main office of the Astronomical observatory of Odessa National University na...
STRONTIUM ABUNDANCES IN COOL DWARF STARS OF GALACTIC THIN AND THICK DISKS
We revise the strontium abundances in FGK stars with metallicities ranging from −1.0 < [Fe/H] < +0.3. The observed stars belong to the substructures of the Galaxy thick and thin discs. The observations were conducted usi...
