scientific-classification is a Claude skill that classifies scientific objects and detects patterns using established taxonomies and confidence-scored classifiers.
About
This skill classifies scientific objects and detects patterns across astronomy, biology, and social sciences using established taxonomies. A developer uses it to map data to standard classification schemes, apply a classifier with confidence scores, and validate against labeled examples. It flags ambiguous or borderline cases and reports alternative labels.
- Five-step protocol from feature extraction to edge-case analysis
- Covers astronomy, biology, chemistry, text and image classification domains
- References SDSS stellar (100K objects) and Allen AI Social Bias Frames datasets

Scientific Classification & Detection
Purpose
Classify scientific objects and detect patterns using established taxonomies and classification schemes.
Key Datasets
- SDSS Stellar Classification (Allanatrix/Astro): 100K objects from SDSS DR17 — Stars, Galaxies, Quasars with photometric features (u, g, r, i, z magnitudes, redshift)
- Social Bias Frames (allenai/social_bias_frames): Allen AI SBIC corpus for detecting implicit social biases in text
Protocol
1. Feature extraction — Identify relevant features for classification task 2. Taxonomy mapping — Map to standard classification scheme 3. Classification — Apply appropriate classifier with confidence scores 4. Validation — Cross-validate against known labeled examples 5. Edge case analysis — Flag ambiguous or borderline cases
Classification Domains
- Astronomical objects: Stellar spectral types (OBAFGKM), galaxy morphology (Hubble), AGN types
- Biological taxonomy: Species classification, protein families, cell types
- Chemical compounds: Functional groups, drug classes, toxicity levels
- Text classification: Sentiment, bias detection, topic classification
- Image classification: Histopathology, satellite imagery, microscopy
Rules
- Report classification confidence and alternative labels
- Use domain-standard taxonomies (not ad-hoc categories)
- Handle multi-label and hierarchical classification
- Document decision boundaries and feature importance
