Galactic component mapping of galaxy UGC 2885 by machine learning classification

Holwerda, Benne W.; Barmby, Pauline; Kwik, Robin J. +1 more

Automating classification of galaxy components is important for understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies. Traditionally, only the larger galaxy structures such as the spiral arms, bulge, and disc are classified. Here we use machine learning (ML) pixel-by-pixel classification to automatically classify all galaxy components within digit…
