A new machine learning model has predicted that other galaxies in our Milky Way contain 44 planets that have the same characteristics as the earth, which means that they can be habitable. Scientists say that the prediction is 99% accurate, reports Forbes.
Scientists have made a new AI algorithm for Machine Learning that identifies galaxies that can organize planets such as ours. The new machine learning model can cause a revolution in the search for habitable planets outside our solar system.
Such planets are rocky, such as the earth, have comparable measurements and other characteristics that are needed to support life. In particular, such planets are in the habitable zone of their star, which means that liquid water can exist on the surface.
It is on such planets that alien life is most likely discovered, scientists believe.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is trained using data to recognize certain types of planets, so that it can make the most accurate predictions.
The new machine learning model is based on a unique new algorithm that is designed to recognize and classify star systems that contain earth-like planets.
As a result, the AI could to predict That there are 44 galaxies in our Milky Way that contain at least one earth-like planet. Scientists say that the prediction is 99% accurate.
“The results are impressive: the algorithm reaches precision values of up to 0.99, which means that 99% of the systems identified by the machine learning model have at least one earth-like planet,” said Jeanne Davoult, an astronomer at the German Aerospace Agency DLR, in one rack.
Further study confirmed the theoretical possibility that these star systems could contain an earth-like planet.
Scientists say that it is one of the few machine learning models in the world with such a level of complexity and depth that it can predict the existence of previously unknown planets that are suitable for life.
The authors of the study Believe that the new model will reduce the time that is needed to study star systems that may have earth-like planets.
In this way astronomers will be able to focus their telescopes on specific parts of our Milky Way, with which they can potentially detect potential planets.
