Machine Learning-Based Supernova Classification with PR-AUC Optimization
This repository implements an optimized XGBoost-based framework for photometric classification of Type Ia supernovae, addressing class imbalance through PR-AUC and F1-score prioritization. The approach is designed for scalability in large-scale astronomical surveys such as LSST and ensures improved classification robustness compared to traditional metrics like ROC-AUC.
