Paz attended [[Pasadena High School (California)|Pasadena High School]] in [[Pasadena, California]]. In the summer of 2022, he joined the [[California Institute of Technology]]'s Planet Finder Academy, where he was mentored by [[J. Davy Kirkpatrick]] and [[Andrew Howard (robotics researcher)|Andrew Howard]].<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=Tuhin |first=Muhammad |date=2025-04-11 |title=The High Schooler Who Found 1.5 Million Hidden Objects in Space: The Story of Matteo Paz and His Cosmic Algorithm |url=https://www.sciencenewstoday.org/the-high-schooler-who-found-1-5-million-hidden-objects-in-space-the-story-of-matteo-paz-and-his-cosmic-algorithm |access-date=2025-06-28 |website=Science News Today |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Bernard |first=Adrien |date=2025-04-16 |title=At 18, he discovers 1.5 million unknown celestial objects with his AI algorithm 🌟 |url=https://www.techno-science.net/en/news/at-18-he-discovers-million-unknown-celestial-objects-with-his-ai-algorithm-N26834.html |access-date=2025-06-28 |website=Techno-Science.net |language=en}}</ref>
Paz and Kirkpatrick analyzed [[NASA]]'s [[Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer]]'s dataset. Paz began building an AI model that could analyze the dataset and identify objects in space. In six weeks, the model was capable of identifying such objects. By 2024, it had flagged 1.5 million candidate objects.<ref name=":1" /> In November 2024, he published his paper, ''A Submillisecond Fourier and Wavelet-based Model to Extract Variable Candidates from the NEOWISE Single-exposure Database'', in ''[[The Astronomical Journal]]''.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=Radware Bot Manager Captcha |url=https://validate.perfdrive.com/fb803c746e9148689b3984a31fccd902/?ssa=91bccf97-7459-4d31-9153-cbe8bb10bd53&ssb=68033265872&ssc=https%3A%2F%2Fiopscience.iop.org%2Farticle%2F10.3847%2F1538-3881%2Fad7fe6&ssi=05fbdffb-cnvj-4704-b85c-2f0184551c2e&ssk=botmanager_support@radware.com&ssm=95506893991129858102686823046045&ssn=aad146cc5db4652e68c770b040851e0921eced0bf245-5e43-4f84-95ddc6&sso=7bcd19d2-0d51673c713cb2b4bcb2c782fe067c8b06a06ec923fb6604&ssp=35195626671751131312175114041217888&ssq=03774284454474109366244544298082044682048&ssr=MjA4LjgwLjE1My4xMDk=&sst=Mozilla/5.0%20(Macintosh;%20Intel%20Mac%20OS%20X%2010_15_7)%20AppleWebKit/537.36%20(KHTML,%20like%20Gecko)%20Chrome/110.0.0.0%20Safari/537.36%20ZoteroTranslationServer/WMF%20(mailto:noc@wikimedia.org)&ssu=&ssv=&ssw=&ssx=eyJyZCI6ImlvcC5vcmciLCJfX3V6bWYiOiI3ZjkwMDBlZDBiZjI0NS01ZTQzLTRmODQtOTlkMi0wZDUxNjczYzcxM2MxLTE3NTExNDQ1NDQxMTgwLTAwMDQzYzA1OTZjMWI2OGFlMGUxMCIsInV6bXgiOiI3ZjkwMDBiMTY1YmQ2OC1mOWEwLTQwZGQtYWRkNy1hZjVjNjc0OWU2OTAxLTE3NTExNDQ1NDQxMTgwLTI0NmE3NTk0OWY4MjQ3OGQxMCJ9 |access-date=2025-06-28 |website=validate.perfdrive.com |doi=10.3847/1538-3881/ad7fe6}}</ref>
