Abstract:
In the past years, Deep Learning (DL) has become more and more popular, partially due to the technological development of deep learning specific GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) but more importantly due to the broad range of uses such as image processing, medical diagnoses and market forecasting. Recently, Deep Learning Convolutional Neural Networks (DL-CNN) were used to detect Gravitational Wave (GW) signals which proved the potential of these algorithms in the context of time-domain astrophysics. In this work we present the preliminary results using different deep learning techniques used in the analysis of GW signals emitted by Massive Black Hole Binaries (MBHB), with component mass ratios in the range of 1-1501. The data consists of simulated GW signals, both clean and injected into Gaussian Random Noise and also randomly generated Gaussian Noise. These results have direct implications in sending early alerts in the context of multi-messenger astronomy.
