RAVEN AI Validates Over 100 TESS Exoplanets
Researchers from the University of Warwick used a new AI pipeline called RAVEN to analyze NASA's TESS data and validate 118 new exoplanets while identifying over 2,000 high-quality candidates, nearly 1,000 of which are entirely new, in a study published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society in March 2026. RAVEN, limited to orbital periods under 16 days, classifies multi-planet, Neptunian-desert and ultra-short-period systems, enabling consistent population mapping and prioritizing follow-up searches.
