This github attempts to maintain a comprehensive list of published machine learning applications to cosmology, organized by subject matter and arxiv posting date. I've also included some more obsevational galaxy studies.
Each entry contains the paper title, a simple summary of the machine learning methods used in the work, and the arxiv link. If I have missed any papers that you believe should be included please email me at [email protected] or issue a pull request.
For general reviews of the subject, or for public machine-learning ready datasets, see the resources at the bottom of this list.

The Large-Scale Structure of the universe is a field that largely relies on state-of-the art cosmological simulations. Due to the computational complexity of these simulations, some investigations will remain computationally-infeasible for the forseeable future, and machine learning techniques can have a number of important uses.

Gravitational lensing in cosmology refers to the bending of light due to mass between the source and Earth. This effect is very useful for inferring properties of the total mass distribution in our Universe, which is dominated by dark matter that we cannot see electromagnetically. Gravitational lensing comes in two types: weak and strong.
Strong gravitational lensing refers to the cases where the lensing effect is strong enough to be seen by the human eye, or equivalent, on an astronomical image. For example, we might see multiple images of a background galaxy, or clear shape distortions. This only happens when a massive galaxy cluster lies between us and some background galaxies
Weak gravitational lensing refers to the global effect that almost all far away galaxies are gravitationally lensed by a small amount, which changes their observed shape by roughly 1%. This can only be measured statistically when given a large number of samples, and not on an object-to-object basis.

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is the light left over from the period of recombination in the very early Universe, 380,000 years after the beginning. CMB observations are sometimes referred to as "baby pictures of our Universe", as this light has been travelling for 13.5 billion years just to reach us. As this light travels towards us it can be effected by the large scale structure along the line of sight, which can be used as a probe of structure formation.

Cosmological parameter estimation is the mechanism of inferring the contents and evolution of our universe from observations. This topic is quite broad, and therefore parameter estimation papers with a focus on an individual experiment/dataset can be found in other sections (e.g. the Reionization and 21cm section). Note that there is an abundance of work in this area that is not covered in the few examples below.
