Abstract: With the advent of future sky survey projects, a vast amount of astronomical data will be generated, leading to a potential influx of new discoveries with appropriate techniques. During this talk, I will present the recent advances made by our group in developing a framework for the discovery of new astronomical phenomena based on digital twin of telescopes and artificial intelligence. Two applications of this framework will be discussed, which include detecting strong lensing through multi-color optical observation data, and identifying celestial objects using data obtained by X-Ray Lobster Eye Telescopes.
