Talk by Mr Mohamed Rehaoulia
Teaching Machines to See the Universe: Applying AI to Radio Astronomy Source Detection
MSc researcher Mohamed Rehaoulia is testing whether Vision Transformers, the image-based counterpart of the architecture behind large language models, can improve how radio galaxies are classified. He explains how he hopes this research will address one of the growing data challenges in modern astronomy.

Originally from Tunisia, Mohamed Rehaoulia completed a BSc in Software Engineering at BME Budapest and is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Malta. His dissertation explores the application of modern computer vision techniques to radio astronomy, focusing on automated source detection in astronomical surveys.
