The early time observations of Type Ⅰa supernovae(SNe Ⅰa)play a crucial role in investigating and resolving longstanding questions about progenitor stars and the explosion mechanisms of these events.Colors of supernovae(SNe)in the initial days after the explosion can help differentiate between different types of SNe.However,the use of true color information to identify SNe Ⅰa at the early-time explosion is still in its infancy.The Multi-channel Photometric Survey Telescope(Mephisto)is a photometric survey telescope equipped with three CCD cameras,capable of simultaneously imaging the same patch of sky in three bands(u,g,i or v,r,z),yielding real-time colors of astronomical objects.In this paper,we introduce a new time-series classification tool named Mephisto Early Supernovae Ⅰa Rapid Identifier(Mesiri),which,for the first time,utilizes real-time color information to distinguish early-time SNe Ⅰa from core-collapse supemovae.Mesiri is based on the deep learning approach and can achieve an accuracy of 96.75%±0.79%,and AUC of 98.87%±0.53%in case of single epoch random observation before the peak brightness.These values reach towards perfectness if additional data points on several night observations are considered.The classification with real-time color significantly outperforms that with pseudo-color,especially at the early time,i.e.,with only a few points of observations.The BiLSTM architecture shows the best performance compared to others that have been tested in this work.
