Detection of Contact Binary Candidates Observed By TESS Using the Autoencoder Neural Network
A contact binary may be the progenitor of a red nova that eventually produces a merger event and have a cut-off period of around 0.2 days. Therefore, a large number of contact binaries is needed to search for the progenitor of red novae and to study the characteristics of short-period contact binari...
