DNF - Galaxy photometric redshift by Directional Neighbourhood Fitting
read the original abstract
Wide field images taken in several photometric bands allow simultaneous measurement of redshifts for thousands of galaxies. A variety of algorithms to make this measurement have appeared in the last few years, the majority of which can be classified as either template or training based methods. Among the latter, nearest neighbour estimatorsstand out as one of the most successful, in terms of both precision and the quality of error estimation. In this paper we describe the Directional Neighbourhood Fitting (DNF) algorithm based on the following: a new neighbourhood metric (Directional Neighbourhood), a photo-z estimation strategy (Neighbourhood Fitting) and a method for generating the photo-z probability distribution function. We compare DNF with other well-known empirical photometric redshift tools using different public datasets (Sloan Digital Sky Survey, VIMOS VLT Deep Survey and Photo-z Accuracy Testing). DNF achieves high-quality results with reliable error.

Machine Learning Techniques for Astrophysics and Cosmology: Photometric Redshifts
AI techniques for photometric redshift estimation have converged and are now limited by the size, systematics, and selection effects in spectroscopic training samples rather than by methodology.
