+The Galaxy Morphology Posterior Estimation Network (GaMPEN) is a novel
+machine learning framework for estimating the Bayesian posteriors (i.e.,
+values + uncertainties) of morphological parameters for arbitrarily
+large numbers of galaxies. GaMPEN also automatically crops input galaxy
+images to an optimal size before morphological parameter estimation.
+
+GaMPEN's predicted uncertainties have been shown to be upto ~60%
+more accurate compared to traditional light-profile fitting codes. GaMPEN
+can be adapted to work on both ground and space-based imaging;
+and to predict both parametric and non-parametric estimates of
+morphology.
+
+Once trained, it takes GaMPEN less than a milli-second to perform a
+single model evaluation on a CPU. Thus, GaMPEN's posterior prediction
+capabilities are ready for large galaxy samples expected from upcoming
+large imaging surveys, such as Rubin-LSST, Euclid, and NGRST.
+
+**For a quick read-through of why GaMPEN was developed, what challenges
+it addresses, and how it works** see this
