A Machine-learning Approach to Predict Missing Flux Densities in Multiband Galaxy Surveys

We present a new method based on information theory to find the optimal number of bands required to measure the physical properties of galaxies with desired accuracy. As a proof of concept, using the recently updated COSMOS catalog (COSMOS2020), we identify the most relevant wave bands for measuring...
