• Abstract summary: We propose ARGUS (Astronomical taRGets detection framework for Unified telescopes) for real-time transit detection. The ARGUS uses a deep learning based astronomical detection algorithm implemented in embedded devices in each WFSATs to detect astronomical targets. We use simulated data to test the performance of ARGUS and find that ARGUS can increase the performance of WFSATs in transient detection tasks robustly.

• Abstract: Wide field small aperture telescopes (WFSATs) are commonly used for fast sky survey. Telescope arrays composed by several WFSATs are capable to scan sky several times per night. Huge amount of data would be obtained by them and these data need to be processed immediately. In this paper, we propose ARGUS (Astronomical taRGets detection framework for Unified telescopes) for real-time transit detection. The ARGUS uses a deep learning based astronomical detection algorithm implemented in embedded devices in each WFSATs to detect astronomical targets. The position and probability of a detection being an astronomical targets will be sent to a trained ensemble learning algorithm to output information of celestial sources. After matching these sources with star catalog, ARGUS will directly output type and positions of transient candidates. We use simulated data to test the performance of ARGUS and find that ARGUS can increase the performance of WFSATs in transient detection tasks robustly.

  We propose Multi-Class Deep Support Vector Data Description (MCDSVDD) to handle different inlier categories with distinct data distributions. MCDSVDD uses a neural network to map the data into hyperspheres, where each hypersphere represents a specific inlier category. Our results demonstrate the efficacy of MCDSVDD in detecting anomalous sources while leveraging the presence of different inlier categories.
