• GW search · Pipeline
• Parameter estimation · Scientific​ discovery
• LLM · High-dim multi-modality inference 

Pioneering works utilizing CNN

• The most common and direct approach, from Computer Vision (CV) to GW signal processing: pixel point \(\Rightarrow\) sampling point.

• Convolutional neural networks (CNN) can achieve comparable performance to Matched Filtering and surpass them in terms of execution speed (with GPU support) under Gaussian stationary noise.

AI for Science \(\rightarrow\) AI for GW Astronomy






 

• Artificial Intelligence (AI) has great potential to revolutionize gravitational wave astronomy by improving data analysis, modeling, and detector development.
• Representation and supervised learning crucially extract features from GW signals, autonomously identifying informative features and leveraging labeled data for accuracy.

 Introduction to Speed and Efficiency

• Machine Learning (ML) offers unparalleled speed in GW detection.
• The increasing sensitivity to noise and the growing number of GW events demand faster analysis capabilities.
   

The Need for Integration (an AI pipeline!)

• Numerous AI algorithms exist for signal detection (see more: https://wiki.ligo.org/MLA/ML_at_LIGO_and_VIRGO), highlighting the need for a streamlined pipeline.
• However, none are operational in O4 due to infrastructure challenges and the lack of standardized sensitivity measures against non-stationary noise.

Case study:                   Pipeline

• The Aframe online pipeline (arXiv:2403.18661) represents a significant step forward.
• Utilizes GPU acceleration for signal preprocessing, model inference, and real-time false alarm rate calculation.

Aframe

S.S. Chaudhary, et al. arXiv:2308.04545

Challenges and Future Directions

• A comprehensive online pipeline should consider various signal types, including BNS and NSBH, and all detectors, including Virgo and KAGRA.
• Beyond false alarm rates, additional real-time information is crucial for a holistic analysis.

Case study:                   Pipeline
 

• The Aframe online pipeline (arXiv:2403.18661) represents a significant step forward.

• Despite its advancements, it primarily focuses on BBH signals, with decreased performance on longer signals like BNS, a point also highlighted in MLGWSC1(2209.11146).

Beyond Speed: Generalization and Discovery in GW Detection

• Our primary goal is not speed but the model's ability to generalize and discover new GW signals, including those beyond the reach of matched filtering techniques and General Relativity (GR).
• Leveraging our experience in signal modeling (MFCNN) and noise modeling (WaveFormer), we are gradually building an offline pipeline capable of searching for signals in complete GW observation data and calculating FARs.

He Wang, et al. MLST. 5, 1 (2024): 015046.

Challenges in Model Interpretability

• The black-box nature of AI models poses significant challenges in interpretability, making it difficult to compare AI-generated detection statistics with those derived from matched filtering chi-square distributions.

• Despite being able to identify potential gravitational wave signals, convincing the scientific community of the pipeline's validity and the statistical significance of new discoveries remains a hurdle.

He Wang, et al. MLST. 5, 1 (2024): 015046.

Exploring Beyond General Relativity
 

• Much of the discussion on model generalization has been within the GR framework. Our collaboration with 东北大学 on beyond General Relativity (bGR) aims to demonstrate AI's potential advantages in detecting signals that surpass GR's limitations.

PRD 108, 4 (2023): 044029.

Appreciating the Ringdown Overtone Test

• A notable work involves ringdown overtone testing, which, acknowledging the difficulty in achieving DINGO-like precision for complex waveforms, leverages the speed advantage of AI.
• By simulating the signal and \(10^3\) realizations of LIGO noise for each pixel, it accomplishes what is impossible for MCMC methods, prioritizing speed over precision in a strategic trade-off.

Exploring Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background with AI

• Utilizing AI for parameter estimation in the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) presents a fascinating blend of rich theoretical content and the potential for optimizing current data processing methods.
• While still preliminary and ongoing, our work shows promising results for high SNR SGWB scenarios, where AI-based posterior probabilities are notably more precise and narrower compared to traditional cross-correlation methods used in PyGWB.

Exploring Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background with AI

• Performance saturation is observed between SNR levels of \(10^{-6}\) to \(10^{-7}\), indicating a plateau in model effectiveness in low SNR conditions.
• Unlike PyGWB, which can accumulate cross-correlation data from SGWB to further constrain the power spectrum, AI model outputs do not readily provide statistically meaningful information for aggregation. Multiplying posterior probabilities from multiple segments leads to ambiguous, and potentially biased, results due to the lack of statistically significant fluctuations across different posterior distributions.
