Gravitational Lensing, Binaries: General

Scientific paper

A new algorithm for the autonomous fitting of light curves of gravitational microlensing by binary lenses is presented here. The algorithm relies on the combination of artificial neural networks with a conventional amoeba (downhill simplex) method to achieve a success rate of 68 per cent using strict success criteria, in an average fitting time of 48 s per light curve when applied to 400 simulated light curves. The current algorithm fits a simple seven-parameter model to generated test curves and requires complete light curves to function, but serves as proof of concept for future work.
