A recent article published in @paspjournal.bsky.social presents a spatio-temporal deep learning architecture for moving-object tracklet verification in wide-field optical surveys. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...
Representative examples from the model-catalog discrepancy set. Left: tracklets predicted as RCT by the model but labeled as UCT in the catalog, many of them exhibit coherent motion consistent with genuine moving objects. Right: tracklets predicted as UCT but labeled as RCT, they are often associated with faint streaks, maneuvering objects or ambiguous instrumental patterns. The figure illustrates the impact of label noises and catalog incompleteness on real-world tracklet classification.
