Data Releases on Zenodo¶
As more ZTF fields receive SCoPe classifications, we make them public on Zenodo. This page describes the data products available and provides a guide to preparing/publishing new data releases. The permanent link for the SCoPe III repository on Zenodo is https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.8410825. This link will always resolve to the latest data release.
Data product description¶
The most recent data release contains these components:
| file | description |
|---|---|
| field_296_100rows.csv | Demo predictions file containing 100 classified light curves |
| fields.json | List of fields in classification catalog, generated when running combine-preds |
| predictions_dnn_xgb_N_fields.zip | Zip file containing classification catalog (contains N combined DNN/XGB prediction files in CSV format) |
| SCoPe_classification_demo.ipynb | Notebook interacting with demo predictions |
| trained_dnn_models.zip | Zip file containing trained DNN models |
| trained_xgb_models.zip | Zip file containing trained XGB models |
| training_set.parquet | Parquet file containing training set |
Preparing a new release¶
To begin a new release draft, click "New version" on the current release. The main difference between releases is the classification catalog Zip file, which adds more ZTF fields over time, along with fields.json. Other unchanged elements of the release may be imported from the previous release by clicking "Import files".
Publishing a new release¶
To publish a new release after uploading the latest classification catalog, first ensure that all desired files are in place. Then, click "Get a DOI now!" to reserve a version-specific DOI for this release. Additionally, specify the publication date and version in vX.Y.Z format.
Finally, create release notes by clicking "Add description" and choosing "Notes" under the "Type" dropdown. These release notes should specify what has changed from one version to the next.
Adding new users¶
The "ZTF Source Classification Project" community ztf-scope contains the current data repository. Inviting additional Zenodo users to this community as Curators will allow them to manage the repository and create new versions.
