Explore Xgboost as a possible decontamination algorithm

[Gabriel-p]

XGboost” (Extreme Gradient Boosting), one of the most powerful packages of machine learning

Given that the decontamination process is a simple binary classification problem, it would seem that this algorithm should be applicable. Nonetheless, we only have training data for a single class (field stars), and I'm not sure if this is a limiting factor.
