Parametrized cosmological mass maps dataset

Parametrized cosmological mass maps dataset

This dataset consists of the non-tomographic training and testing set without noise and intrinsic alignments. 

It was introduced in the following paper
Fluri, Janis, et al. "Cosmological constraints with deep learning from KiDS-450 weak lensing maps." Physical Review D 100.6 (2019): 063514.
Furthermore, this dataset is released with the following paper:
Perraudin, Nathanaël, et al. "Emulation of cosmological mass maps with conditional generative adversarial networks." arXiv preprint arXiv:2004.08139 (2020).

Description

The simulation grid consists of $57$ different cosmologies assuming a flat LambdaCDM universe. 
Each of these 57 configurations was run with different values of Omega_m and sigma_8, resulting in the following parameter grid.| Omega_m, sigma_8

Each zip file in the dataset corresponds to 1 of these combinations and contains 12 files containing 1000 images.
The source galaxy redshift distribution corresponding to these maps is the full, non-tomographic redshift distribution n(z) from Fluri et. al.
The projected matter distribution was pixelised into images of size 128px x 128px, which correspond to 5deg x 5deg of the sky. 
Eventually, the resulting dataset consists of 57 sets of 12'000 sky convergence maps for a total of $684'000$ samples.
