摘要： The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project is an international cooperation project to build the largest radio telescope worldwide. Data processing is one of the biggest challenges of building the SKA telescope. As a distributed execution framework, the Data Activated Liu Graph Engine (DALiuGE) was proposed to be one of the candidates for addressing the massive data of the SKA. DALiuGE has many distinctive features, but its actual ability to handle scientific data is still not evident. In this paper, we perform an objective evaluation of the usability of DALiuGE concerning the execution performance, developer workload, and implementation difficulty of porting the SAGECal to DALiuGE. The evaluation results showed that the DALiuGE enables fast integration of astronomical software, but there are significant differences in the efficiency of different parallel granularities. Even with the deep optimization of the program, there is still a gap between the current DALiuGE and the traditional MPI in execution performance. Therefore, we come to a preliminary conclusion that the DALiuGE has no performance advantage in batch processing of massive data, while it may be more suitable for application scenarios with more customized computational tasks, such as SKA science regional centers.

摘要： Open clusters (OCs) are regarded as tracers to understand stellar evolution theory and validate stellar models. In this study, we presented a robust approach to identifying OCs. A hybrid method of pyUPMASK and RF is first used to remove field stars and determine more reliable members. An identification model based on the RF algorithm built based on 3714 OC samples from Gaia DR2 and EDR3 is then applied to identify OC candidates. The OC candidates are obtained after isochrone fitting, the advanced stellar population synthesis (ASPS) model fitting, and visual inspection. Using the proposed approach, we revisited 868 candidates and preliminarily clustered them by the friends-of-friends algorithm in Gaia EDR3. Excluding the open clusters that have already been reported, we focused on the remaining 300 unknown candidates. From high to low fitting quality, these unrevealed candidates were further classified into Class A (59), Class B (21), and Class C (220), respectively. As a result, 46 new reliable open cluster candidates among classes A and B are identified after visual inspection.

摘要： Galaxy morphology reflects structural properties which contribute to understand the formation and evolution of galaxies. Deep convolutional networks have proven to be very successful in learning hidden features that allow for unprecedented performance on galaxy morphological classification. Such networks mostly follow the supervised learning paradigm which requires sufficient labelled data for training. However, it is an expensive and complicated process of labeling for million galaxies, particularly for the forthcoming survey projects. In this paper, we present an approach based on contrastive learning with aim for learning galaxy morphological visual representation using only unlabeled data. Considering the properties of low semantic information and contour dominated of galaxy image, the feature extraction layer of the proposed method incorporates vision transformers and convolutional network to provide rich semantic representation via the fusion of the multi-hierarchy features. We train and test our method on 3 classifications of datasets from Galaxy Zoo 2 and SDSS-DR17, and 4 classifications from Galaxy Zoo DECaLS. The testing accuracy achieves 94.7%, 96.5% and 89.9% respectively. The experiment of cross validation demonstrates our model possesses transfer and generalization ability when applied to the new datasets. The code that reveals our proposed method and pretrained models are publicly available and can be easily adapted to new surveys.
