摘要
The noise of gravitational-wave (GW) interferometers limits their sensitivity and impacts the data quality, hindering the detection of GW signals from astrophysical sources. For transient searches, the most problematic are transient noise artifacts, known as glitches, that happen at a rate around 1 min(-1), and can mimic GW signals. Because of this, there is a need for better modeling and inclusion of glitches in large-scale studies, such as stress testing the pipelines. In this proof-of concept work we employ generative adversarial networks (GAN), a state-of-the-art deep learning algorithm inspired by game theory, to learn the underlying distribution of blip glitches and to generate artificial populations. We reconstruct the glitch in the time domain, providing a smooth input that the GAN can learn. With this methodology, we can create distributions of similar to 10(3) glitches from Hanford and Livingston detectors in less than 1 sec. Furthermore, we employ several metrics to measure the performance of our methodology and the quality of its generations. This investigation will be extended in the future to different glitch classes with the final goal of creating an open-source interface for mock data generation.
