摘要
We investigate the possibility of applying machine learning techniques to images of strongly lensed galaxies to detect a low mass cut-off in the spectrum of dark matter sub-halos within the lens system. We generate lensed images of systems containing substructure in seven different categories corresponding to lower mass cut-offs ranging from $10^9M_\odot$ down to $10^6M_\odot$. We use convolutional neural networks to perform a multi-classification sorting of these images and see that the algorithm is able to correctly identify the lower mass cut-off within an order of magnitude to better than 93% accuracy.
