Automatic Search for Low-surface-brightness Galaxies from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Images Using Deep Learning

Low-surface-brightness (LSB) galaxies play a crucial role in our understanding of galaxy evolution and dark matter cosmology. However, efficiently detecting them in large-scale surveys is challenging, due to their dim appearance. In this study, we propose a two-step detection method based on deep le...
