Mapping the Invisible: AI Predicts Galactic Gas Distribution
![A study utilizes [latex]3 \times 3\deg^{2}[/latex] tiles to apply Cycle-GAN at high Galactic latitudes, comparing maps of Planck thermal dust at 857 GHz, HI column density from the HI4PI survey, and carbon monoxide emissions-specifically J:1-0 and J:2-1-derived from mock, Planck Type 2, and pysm3 models, all normalized to a common logarithmic scale to reveal subtle relationships within interstellar gas distributions.](https://arxiv.org/html/2604.16167v1/x19.png)
