Photometric Data-driven Classification of Type Ia Supernovae in the Open Supernova Catalog
We propose a novel approach for a machine-learning-based detection of the type Ia supernovae using photometric information. Unlike other approaches, only real observation data is used during training. Despite being trained on a relatively small sample, the method shows good results on real data from the Open Supernovae Catalog. We also demonstrate that the quality of a model, trained on PLASTiCC simulated sample, significantly decreases evaluated on real objects.
