LyAl-Net, a machine learning approach based on the U-net architecture,
to emulate the intergalactic medium physics of the Lyman-alpha forest in
cosmological simulations. This approach provides a cheap and efficient
way to simulate the Lyman-alpha forest and was tested with one and
two-point statistics of emulated fields in different scenarios. Results
show that this method accurately predicts the mean transmission of the
Lyman-alpha forest, which is important for future QSO surveys. This
approach has potential applications in the exploitation of upcoming
cosmological surveys, such as WEAVE-QSO.
