A team of researchers used AI to find 8 promising radio signals that could be from extraterrestrial intelligence.
One of the great scientific projects of our time is the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence or SETI — the hunt for evidence of technologically advanced civilizations elsewhere in the galaxy. The current manifestation of this endeavor is the Breakthrough Listen Initiative, which uses radio telescopes to look for signals that cannot have a terrestrial origin.
So astronomers have developed a technique called “position switching” where, during an observation, the radio telescope scans a specific part of the sky for a few seconds, then looks away, then continues its scan, then looks away and so on. They used their algorithm to analyze 480 hours of observations of 820 stars taken by the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia. This came in the form of over 1000 cadences generating some 115 million windows of data to analyze.
