Gravitational-wave data mining
Gravitational-wave astronomy is entering its large-statistics regime. Catalogs with thousands of gravitational-wave events will soon be available, providing a wealth of information on the most compact objects in the Universe --black holes and neutron stars. These new datasets need new tools to be exploited effectively in order to maximize their scientific impact. GWmining is an ambitious program to explore upcoming gravitational-wave catalogs with data-mining techniques. We will develop a complete framework to analyze gravitational-wave data in light of astrophysical predictions. Going beyond phenomenological models, we will train machine-learning algorithms directly on large banks of…
