Identification of Galaxy–Galaxy Strong Lens Candidates in the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey Using Machine Learning

E. A. Zaborowski,
A. Drlica-Wagner,
F. Ashmead
et al.

Abstract: We perform a search for galaxy–galaxy strong lens systems using a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to imaging data from the first public data release of the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey, which contains ∼520 million astronomical sources covering ∼4000 deg2 of the southern sky to a 5σ point–source depth of g = 24.3, r = 23.9, i = 23.3, and z = 22.8 mag. Following the methodology of similar searches using Dark Energy Camera data, we apply color and magnitude cuts to select a catalog of ∼11 mill… Show more

“…However, we note here that f host is mostly limited by the human inspection criteria (see Chen et al 2022 for detailed description) on the shape recognition of the lensed galaxies rather than the limiting magnitude. With the rapid development of the strong machine-learning technique on the galaxy-galaxy lensing identification (e.g., Hezaveh et al 2017; Lanusse et al 2018;Zaborowski et al 2023), one may identify the lensed hosts more accurately, making f host ∼ 1 as expected. Therefore, we are optimistic about the detection of lensed TDEs and hopefully may help to resolve several important physical aspects involved in TDEs.…”
