AI-based Algorithm to Detect Habitable Planets

Recently, Indian Astronomers, utilising an Artificial Intelligence-based algorithm, have devised a new approach for identifying potentially habitable planets.

Key Highlights

• Anomaly Detection Method: Astronomers from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics along with astronomers from BITS Pilani, Goa campus, have devised a new approach -- an anomaly detection method -- by which they can identify potentially habitable planets with a high probability.
• The researchers developed a novel Artificial Intelligence-based algorithm to detect anomalies and extended it to an unsupervised clustering algorithm to use it to identify the probably habitable exoplanets from the exoplanet datasets.
• MSMBTAI: The AI-based method, named Multi-Stage Memetic ....
