GMM clustering of X-ray GRB plateau properties (MNRAS 525, 2023)Abstract
We apply unsupervised machine learning techniques to classify Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) afterglows based
on their optical and X-ray plateau emission properties. By analysing a large sample of GRBs, we identify
distinct classes of plateau behaviour that may reflect different physical mechanisms or progenitor
populations. Our classification scheme provides a data-driven framework for understanding the diversity
of GRB afterglow properties.
