3D-Matched-Filter galaxy cluster finder - I. Selection functions and CFHTLS Deep clusters
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present an optimised galaxy cluster finder, 3D-Matched-Filter (3D-MF), which utilises galaxy cluster radial profiles, luminosity functions and redshift information to detect galaxy clusters in optical surveys. This method is an improvement over other matched-filter methods, most notably through implementing redshift slicing of the data to significantly reduce line-of-sight projections and related false positives. We apply our method to the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey (CFHTLS) Deep fields, finding ~170 galaxy clusters per square degree in the 0.2 <= z <= 1.0 redshift range. Future surveys such as LSST and JDEM can exploit 3D-MF's automated methodology to produce complete and reliable galaxy cluster catalogues. We determine the reliability and accuracy of the statistical approach of our method through a thorough analysis of mock data from the Millennium Simulation. We detect clusters with 100% completeness for M_200 >= 3.0x10^(14)M_sun, 88% completeness for M_200 >= 1.0x10^(14)M_sun, and 72% completeness well into the 10^(13)M_sun cluster mass range. We show a 36% multiple detection rate for cluster masses >= 1.5x10^(13)M_sun and a 16% false detection rate for galaxy clusters >~ 5x10^(13)M_sun, reporting that for clusters with masses

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
