SUMMARY:Cosmology with Machine Learning: new tools for data and for theory
DESCRIPTION:Cosmology with Machine Learning: new tools for data and for the
 ory\nProf. Raul Abramo\n\n&nbsp;\nCosmology today is facing two fundamenta
 l problems: we do not know  for certain what is the present expansion rate
  of the Universe, or why  that expansion seems to be accelerating.&nbsp;In
  order to address these  challenges, new telescopes and instruments are be
 coming available. One  of these instruments is J-PAS, which at the end of 
 2023 started to map  the Universe using 56 narrow optical bands, detecting
  $\sim 4. \times  10^4$ extragalactic objects in each square degree. Massi
 ve new data sets  such as J-PAS can be quite challenging to digest, and Ma
 chine Learning  (ML) has become central in our efforts to detect, classify
  and to  extract properties of astrophysical sources. I will discuss how M
 L has  allowed us to advance in source classification, determining which o
 nes  are stars, galaxies or quasars, paving the way for J-PAS to become on
 e  of the most complete galaxy surveys at $z \lesssim 1$, and the best  qu
 asar survey at $z \lesssim 4$. I will also show that, on the  theoretical 
 side, numerical simulations together with ML techniques have  allowed us t
 o reproduce the intricate relationships between halos and  galaxies with u
 nprecedented accuracy, which is what will ensure that we  can realize the 
 potential of these amazing new observations in terms of a  new understandi
 ng about the evolution of our Universe.\nZoom:&nbsp; https://rediris.zoom.
