There are a wide variety of models that attempt to draw some conclusions from observed values, so classification algorithms predict categorical class labels for use in classifying new data.\u0000Popular classification models including logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine (SVM), multilayer perceptron, naive bayes, neural networks have proven to be efficient and accurate applied to many industrial and scientific problems. Particularly, application of ML to astronomy has shown to be very useful for classification, clustering and data cleaning. It is because after learning computers, these tasks can be done automatically by them in a more precise and more rapid way than human operators. In view of this, in this paper, we will review some of these popular classification algorithms, and then we apply some of them to the observational data of nonvariable and the RR Lyrae variable stars that come from the SDSS survey. For the sake of comparison, we calculate the accuracy and $F1$-score of the applied models.","PeriodicalId":52135,"journal":{"name":"Astronomical and Astrophysical Transactions","volume":"52 5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91127659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The material ejected in the explosion is gravitationally attracted by the NS, triggering a hypercritical accretion process onto it. For compact systems, the accretion rate could be high enough for the NS to reach its critical mass, collapse in a black hole (BH) and emit an energetic (energy release $gtrsim 10^{52}$ erg) gamma-ray burst (GRB). With the aim to identify the separatrix of systems in which a BH is formed and characterize the observational signatures of the above process, we have performed three-dimensional (3D) smoothed-particle-hydrodynamics (SPH) numerical simulations of the SN expansion in the presence of the NS companion and the evolution of the NS during the accretion process.
