AI will search for gravitational waves

The authors of the new paper claim that artificial intelligence models can be as sensitive as

like traditional matching algorithmstemplates, however they work faster. Moreover, these AI algorithms only require a low-cost graphics processing unit (GPU), so it is one of the effective ways to study gravitational waves.

Gravitational waves - changes in gravitationalfields spreading like waves. They are emitted by moving masses, but after radiation they break away from them and exist independently of these masses. Mathematically related to the perturbation of the space-time metrics and can be described as "ripples of space-time".

As a result, the AI ​​identified all four binary black hole mergers that were previously identified in this data set. 

In this research, we combine the power of artificial intelligence and supercomputing to help solve timely and pressing big data questions.

The team plans to continue using this combination of techniques to solve data-driven questions not only in physics, but also in other interdisciplinary sciences.
