- 用图神经网络+矩量网络,从星系相空间数据学习宇宙参数。
- 在25h⁻¹Mpc³体积上训练,10%精度预测Ωₘ,跨模型跨模拟通用。
- 对物理假设、哈勃参量等变化鲁棒,适合生成宇宙学反演的星系模拟样本。
半解析模型是宇宙学框架下模拟星系性质的常用方法,基于简化的物理假设,可高效生成高精度星系目录,计算成本远低于全流体模拟。本文表明,仅使用星系3D位置与径向速度,通过图神经网络与矩量神经网络结合,即可训练出机器学习模型,以约10%的精度估计物质密度参数Ωₘ。该网络在(25 h⁻¹Mpc)³体积的L-Galaxies星系目录上训练,并成功外推至其他半解析模型(GAEA、SC-SAM、Shark)及全流体模拟(Astrid、SIMBA、IllustrisTNG、SWIFT-EAGLE)。结果表明,该模型对不同天体物理、亚网格物理、宇宙学参数及晕剖面处理方式具有强鲁棒性。这说明半解析模型中的相空间物理关系基本独立于具体物理设定,进一步验证其作为宇宙学参数推断中真实星系模拟样本生成工具的潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Semi-analytic models are a widely used approach to simulate galaxy properties within a cosmological framework, relying on simplified yet physically motivated prescriptions. They have also proven to be an efficient alternative for generating accurate galaxy catalogs, offering a faster and less computationally expensive option compared to full hydrodynamical simulations. In this paper, we demonstrate that using only galaxy $3$D positions and radial velocities, we can train a graph neural network coupled to a moment neural network to obtain a robust machine learning based model capable of estimating the matter density parameters, $Ω_{\rm m}$, with a precision of approximately 10%. The network is trained on ($25 h^{-1}$Mpc)$^3$ volumes of galaxy catalogs from L-Galaxies and can successfully extrapolate its predictions to other semi-analytic models (GAEA, SC-SAM, and Shark) and, more remarkably, to hydrodynamical simulations (Astrid, SIMBA, IllustrisTNG, and SWIFT-EAGLE). Our results show that the network is robust to variations in astrophysical and subgrid physics, cosmological and astrophysical parameters, and the different halo-profile treatments used across simulations. This suggests that the physical relationships encoded in the phase-space of semi-analytic models are largely independent of their specific physical prescriptions, reinforcing their potential as tools for the generation of realistic mock catalogs for cosmological parameter inference.
