Title: Improving Gaia Parallax Precision with a Data-Driven Model of Stars
Abstract: Gaia will eventually generate astrometric information, including parallax, for 2 billion stars. A lot of these distance estimates will be very noisy. I will talk about our work on using data-driven models to make these distance estimates more precise.
