Eclipsing binary classification with machine learning techniques

Bedri Keskin, Özgür Baştürk

Abstract

We focus on the automated classification of eclipsing binary stars using deep learning methods to handle the vast data generated by large-scale photometric sky surveys. These surveys produce extensive datasets that are impractical for manual analysis. By using machine learning to classify eclipsing binary stars based on light curve morphology, this study aims to contribute to the efforts to efficiently process and accurately interpret massive data from projects Kepler, TESS and Gaia missions.
