Whats new?

This portal provides a new entry for the repositories and documentation of this project.

Welcome to ML-PPA

The Machine Learning-based Pipeline for Pulsar Analysis (ML-PPA) software framework for extracting pulsar signals in data streams from radio astronomical antennas.

Pipelines and Notebooks

The software framework provides Python and C++ written pipelines. Most of the pipeline can easily be analyzed using jupyter notebooks. The following sub-projects are currently available.

All projects provide a link to a repository and some of them also a link to its documentation.

PulsarSA

Tools to segment and analyse pulsar signals from noisy frequency-time data.

PulsarDT

Simulation of pulsars with customisable emissions to generate training data for AI detection.

PulsarDT++

A C++ version of PulsarDT.

Telescope Noise DT

Simulation of radio telescope noise based on modular libraries.

PulsarRFI_NN

A wrapper around PulsarRFI_Gen, creating a simulated data pipeline for training and testing.

PulsarRFI_Gen

A tool for generating synthetic radio pulses as well as primitive broadband and narrowband RFIs.

DADA Noise Analysis

A Jupyter notebook for reading and analysing data from the DADA radio telescope.
