There are a lot of models to detect cosmic string.But a very few are to detect the location of cosmic string.We propose a framework to detect the location of cosmic string. We used di- lated convolutional net with focal loss instead of cross-entropy to improved the performance of the framework on weak samples. The neural network we trained is able to detect and locate cosmic string on noiseless CMB temper- ature map down to a string tension of less then G =5 10􀀀9. We expect to use more accurate simulation to produce data set to improve the con dence of the model.38 pagesenBRAC University theses are protected by copyright.
