Summary

A transfer-learned network estimates bulge fraction, radius and flux across the Hyper Suprime-Cam wide survey, with full coverage for about 3.9 million objects.

The authors report calibration within about six percent mean deviation after adapting with roughly 0.5 percent of the data. They exclude high-redshift g-band measurements where rest-frame ultraviolet light degrades performance.

Why it matters

A transfer-learned network estimates bulge fraction, radius and flux across the Hyper Suprime-Cam wide survey, with full coverage for about 3.9 million objects.
