| Abstract | This program will use artificial intelligence (AI) to detect a large sample of the faintest and smallest galaxies in the Universe. With an innovative computer code, this research team will analyze vast datasets obtained by the most advanced astronomical observatories, among them the Rubin telescope. Dwarf galaxies are faint and small, which makes them difficult to detect in astronomical images. With the power of AI, this program will discover a solid statistical sample of elusive distant dwarf g |
