Improving Accuracy of Quasars' Photometric Redshift Estimation by Integration of KNN and SVM
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2016
Abstract
Catastrophic failure is an unsolved problem existing in the most photometric redshift estimation approaches for a long history. In this study, we propose a novel approach by integration of k-nearest-neighbor (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM) methods together. Experiments based on the quasar sample from SDSS show that the fusion approach can significantly mitigate catastrophic failure and improve the accuracy of photometric redshift estimation.
