Cosmological parameters from the joint analysis of density split and second order statistics: An emulator based on the halo occupation distribution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this work, we develop a simulation-based model to predict the density split (DSS) and second-order shear and clustering statistics. A simulation-based model has the potential to model highly non-linear scales where current DSS models fail. To build this model, we use the abacussummit N-body simulation suite from which we measure all necessary statistics and train an emulator based on cosmopower. In that context, we discuss possible improvements for future emulators to make the measurement less noisy and biased, resulting in more accurate and precise model predictions. Regarding the emulator's accuracy, we find that the most important aspect is the average of the summary statistics over multiple-shot noise realizations of the foreground galaxies. However, these results probably depend on the chosen number density of the foreground galaxies. Regarding the parameter forecast based on preliminary LOWZxUNIONS data, we find that DSS has more constraining power to derive cosmological parameters than second-order statistics and that the joint analysis with second-order statistics is particularly useful for extracting parameters of the galaxy-halo connection.

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.
