The method makes use of our previous effort in homogenizing and recalibrating spectroscopic data from surveys like APOGEE, GALAH, or LAMOST into a single catalog, which is used to inform a neural network. We obtain spectroscopic-quality parameters for millions of stars that have only been observed photometrically. The typical uncertainties are of the order of 100K in temperature, 0.1 dex in surface gravity, and 0.1 dex in metallicity and the method performs well down to low metallicity, were obtaining reliable results is known to be difficult.  \nKeywords: machine learning, big data, surveys, stars, spectroscopy  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nIn the last few years large spectroscopic surveys provided a huge amount of photometric measurements for hundreds of millions (up to billions) of stars, either at low-medium resolution such as the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) [1], the Sloan Extension for Galactic Understanding and Exploration (SEGUE) [2] and the Large sky Area Multi Object fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) [3], or at high-resolution such as the Galactic Archaeology with HERMES (GALAH) [4], the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) [5] and the Gaia-ESO survey [6] . The data provided by these surveys allow to give a precise estimates of key parameters such as effective temperature (Teff), surface gravity (log g) and iron metallicity ([Fe/H]) for few millions of stars in the Milky Way. The availability of high-quality spectroscopic measurement, together with a good estimation of distance and reddening, is of paramount importance to derive high quality estimates of the above parameters from photometric surveys.  \nIn recent years, these surveys spawned a many works focused on Machine Learning (ML) methods (i.e. Neural Networks or simpler methods), such as the Cannon [7], the Payne [8] and StarNet [9] . ML saw a huge development in the last decades of XX century and rose to a widespread usage in the first decades of XXI century. The term can be used as a general hat to cover different disciplines from Artificial Intelligence to Neural Networksand Computational Statistics. In general we refer to ML techniques when based on algorithms that make use of heterogeneous data to automatically “learn” and build a “model” that is used to produce a desired output, using statistical methods.  \nML methods applied to spectroscopic star catalogues mainly focus on the analysis of the provided data to many different purposes, i.e. trying to enhance the physical model used to compute the parameters, thus this field is already mature in the case where the previous parameters are directly derived from spectroscopic data. However spectroscopic quality measurements are hard to perform on large stellar samples, ","cbCaimXG68CHO9mU","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimXG68CHO9mU","pdf",976891,1,9,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n# Input Catalogs and Training Set","[{\"question\":\"What stellar parameters does the method predict from photometric data?\",\"answer\":\"It predicts effective temperature, surface gravity, and iron metallicity ([Fe/H]).\"},{\"question\":\"How is training data prepared for the neural network?\",\"answer\":\"Spectroscopic-quality labels are taken from the SoS catalogue, built by homogenizing and recalibrating spectroscopic measurements from multiple surveys.\"},{\"question\":\"What accuracy is reported for the inferred parameters?\",\"answer\":\"Typical uncertainties are about 100 K for temperature, 0.1 dex for surface gravity, and 0.1 dex for metallicity, with good performance at low metallicity.\"}]","The Survey of Surveys - machine learning for stellar parametrization | PDF",1785814734,23,{"code":4,"msg":31,"data":32},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":33,"title":13,"keywords":34,"description":14,"schema_data":35,"social_meta":86,"head_meta":88,"extra_data":90,"updated_unix":28},"the-survey-of-surveys-machine-learning-for-stellar-parametrization","",{"@graph":36,"@context":85},[37,54,68],{"@type":38,"itemListElement":39},"BreadcrumbList",[40,44,48,51],{"item":41,"name":42,"@type":43,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":45,"name":46,"@type":43,"position":47},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":49,"name":12,"@type":43,"position":50},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":52,"name":13,"@type":43,"position":53},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/the-survey-of-surveys-machine-learning-for-stellar-parametrization/123122/",4,{"url":52,"name":13,"@type":55,"author":56,"headline":13,"publisher":58,"fileFormat":61,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":62,"datePublished":62,"encodingFormat":61,"isAccessibleForFree":63,"interactionStatistic":64},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":57},"Person",{"url":41,"name":59,"@type":60},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-08-04",true,{"@type":65,"interactionType":66,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":67},"ViewAction",{"@type":69,"mainEntity":70},"FAQPage",[71,77,81],{"name":72,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":74},"What stellar parameters does the method predict from photometric data?","Question",{"text":75,"@type":76},"It predicts effective temperature, surface gravity, and iron metallicity ([Fe/H]).","Answer",{"name":78,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":79},"How is training data prepared for the neural network?",{"text":80,"@type":76},"Spectroscopic-quality labels are taken from the SoS catalogue, built by homogenizing and recalibrating spectroscopic measurements from multiple surveys.",{"name":82,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":83},"What accuracy is reported for the inferred parameters?",{"text":84,"@type":76},"Typical uncertainties are about 100 K for temperature, 0.1 dex for surface gravity, and 0.1 dex for metallicity, with good performance at low metallicity.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":52,"og:type":87,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":59,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":89,"canonical":52},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":92},[93,97,101,105,110,115,120,123,127,130,134],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":94,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":47,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":98,"show_sort_weight":99,"slug":100},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":53,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":102,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":104},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":106,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":107,"show_sort_weight":108,"slug":109},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":111,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":112,"show_sort_weight":113,"slug":114},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":116,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":117,"show_sort_weight":118,"slug":119},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},30,"research-report",{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":126},"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":128,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":129},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":131,"slug":133},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":135,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":137},19,"General","general"]
