Optimized Fuzzy System for automatic detection of planetary transits in light curves of individual stars

The transit method is an effective way to find extrasolar planets. This method is based on the shallow decrease that a planet causes in its host star’s apparent brightness: when the planet passes through our line of sight, it affects the brightness we receive from the star with our telescopes.

description The transit method is an effective way to find extrasolar planets. This method is based on the shallow decrease that a planet causes in its host star’s apparent brightness: when the planet passes through our line of sight, it affects the brightness we receive from the star with our telescopes. However, these transit events are very close to the telescopes’ detection sensitivity limit. To confirm a planet observation, it takes at least three (3) transit events, making long-time observations of a star necessary to detect extrasolar planets that may orbit it, which results in large amounts of data to be analized. In this work we did a new software pipeline for autonomous detection of transit traces by analyzing extracted features from stellar light curves using a fuzzy logic classifier, avoiding the task of searching for transit events in each section of the light curves. During the development process of the software pipeline, the Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) methodology is implemented, which presents a way to extract knowledge from large datasets.

El método de tránsito es un método efectivo para identificar planetas extrasolares, que se basa en la disminución poco profunda que provoca un planeta en el brillo aparente de su estrella anfitriona. Sin embargo, los eventos de tránsito están muy cerca del límite de la sensibilidad de detección de los telescopios y se necesitan al menos tres (3) eventos de tránsito producidos por el mismo planeta para confirmar el descubrimiento de éste, lo que hace que se requieran observaciones por tiempos prolongados de una estrella para detectar planetas extrasolares que puedan estar orbitandola, lo que resulta en grandes cantidades de datos que deben ser analizados. En este trabajo se desarrolló una nueva tuberia de software (pipeline) para la detección autónoma de rastros de tránsitos planetarios analizando características extraídas de curvas de luz estelares utilizando un clasificador de lógica difusa, evadiendo la tarea de buscar tránsitos en cada sección de las curvas de luz. Para el desarrollo de esta tuberia de software se implementó la metodologia llamada: Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) la cual presenta una forma de extraer conocimiento de grandes conjuntos de datos.
