# SBI_INAF
**SBI_INAF** is a dataset designed for **Simulation-Based Inference (SBI)** on atmospheric retrieval of exoplanets at a spectral resolution of approximately **R = 40000**, tailored for the GIANO-B echelle spectrograph. It contains transmission spectra (stellar and telluric free) together with their associated physical parameters, auxiliary metadata, normalization statistics, and predefined train/validation/test splits.
The dataset is built upon the Atmospheric Big Challenge (ABC) database, with major modifications to address the research goals of the research paper "Towards Scalable High-Resolution Atmospheric Retrieval of Exoplanets with Flow Matching" - M. Giordano Orsini et al., 2026.
The dataset is intended for supervised learning tasks involving parameter estimation from synthetic or simulated transmission spectra.

## File Descriptions
| File | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `h5s/` | Collection of HDF5 files containing the spectra and associated sample information. |
| `FM_Parameter_Table.csv` | Physical parameters (forward-model parameters) associated with each simulated spectrum. These serve as prediction targets. |
| `AuxillaryTable.csv` | Additional metadata describing each sample (planetary system-related parameters). |
| `QuartilesTable.csv` | Summary statistics (quartiles) of selected parameters or features. Useful for exploratory data analysis. |
| `norm_params.pkl` | Stored normalization parameters used during preprocessing. |
| `wavelengths.npy` | Common wavelength grid for all spectra. |
| `widths.npy` | Spectral bin widths corresponding to the wavelength grid. |
| `train_indices.npy` | Indices defining the training split. |
| `val_indices.npy` | Indices defining the validation split. |
| `test_indices.npy` | Indices defining the held-out test split. |
