• Abstract: Here we explore certain subtle features imprinted in data from the completed Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV) extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) as a combined probe for the background and perturbed Universe. We reconstruct the baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) and Redshift Space Distortion (RSD) observables as functions of redshift, using measurements from SDSS alone. We apply the Multi-Task Gaussian Process (MTGP) framework to model the interdependencies of cosmological observables $D_M(z)/r_d$, $D_H(z)/r_d$, and $f\sigma_8(z)$, and track their evolution across different redshifts. Subsequently, we obtain constrained three-dimensional phase space containing $D_M(z)/r_d$, $D_H(z)/r_d$, and $f\sigma_8(z)$ at different redshifts probed by the SDSS-IV eBOSS survey. Furthermore, assuming the $\Lambda$CDM model, we obtain constraints on model parameters $\Omega_{m}$, $H_{0}r_{d}$, $\sigma_{8}$ and $S_{8}$ at each redshift probed by SDSS-IV eBOSS. This indicates redshift-dependent trends in $H_0$, $\Omega_m$, $\sigma_8$ and $S_8$ in the $\Lambda$CDM model, suggesting a possible inconsistency in the $\Lambda$CDM model. Ours is a template for model-independent extraction of information for both background and perturbed Universe using a single galaxy survey taking into account all the existing correlations between background and perturbed observables and this can be easily extended to future DESI-3YR as well as Euclid results.

  We propose amortize the cost of sampling from a posterior distribution of the form $p(mathbfxmidmathbfy) propto p_theta(mathbfx)$. For many models and constraints of interest, the posterior in the noise space is smoother than the posterior in the data space, making it more amenable to such amortized inference.

  3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has demonstrated remarkable effectiveness for novel view synthesis (NVS) However, the 3DGS model tends to overfit when trained with sparse posed views, limiting its generalization ability to novel views. We present a Self-Ensembling Gaussian Splatting (SE-GS) approach to alleviate the overfitting problem. Our approach improves NVS quality with few-shot training views, outperforming existing state-of-the-art methods.

This work not only presents competitive cosmological constraints but also introduces novel methods for leveraging additional cosmological information in upcoming galaxy surveys like DESI, PFS, and Euclid.

  AGN and supernovae feedback can affect measurements of integrated SZ flux of halos from CMB surveys. We search for analogues of the $Y-M$ relation which are more robust to feedback processes for low masses. Our results can be useful for using upcoming SZ surveys to constrain the nature of baryonic feedback.

• DeepLSS: breaking parameter degeneracies in large scale structure with deep learning analysis of combined probes [0.0]
  We show that a deep learning analysis of combined probes of weak gravitational lensing and galaxy clustering, which we call DeepS, can effectively break these degeneracies. These degeneracies lead to a significant gain in constraining power for $sigma_8$ and $Omega_m$, with the figure of merit improved by 15x. These results indicate that the fully numerical, map-based forward modeling approach to cosmological inference with machine learning may play an important role in upcoming LSS surveys.

We then apply modern tools from Bayesian analysis known as likelihood-free inference (LFI) to invert our proposed model.
