2.4. Implementation Details
We use a transfer learning approach, where a model trained on one dataset is reused for another related dataset. First, we train on the pre-training dataset (simplified galaxy images) for 150,000 iterations, followed by an additional 150,000 iterations on the finetuning dataset (realistic galaxy images). The batch size remains fixed at 64. Additionally, to compare and analyze the performance of training on individual datasets, we also conduct training separately solely based on either the pre-training or finetuning datasets. Our inference model is publically available [1].
