GAz: Genetic Algorithm for photometric redshift estimation
GAz calculates photometric redshifts for low redshift galaxies. It finds optimal polynomial forms to fit to data. It explores the very large space of high order polynomials while only requiring optimization of a small number of terms. Tested with the 2SLAQ LRG data set, GAz generalizes well to various data sets and redshift ranges.
