The Deeper Studies of IC 2488 and IC 2714

In this paper, we use two methods, an algorithm of the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise combined with the Gaussian mixture model, and the maximum likelihood method, to study two open clusters: IC 2488 and IC 2714 with Gaia Data Release 3 data. We compare the two methods in terms of cluster star number, isochrone fitting, cluster mass, and radius. The comparison shows that the selections of cluster stars by the two methods are consistent. The parameters obtained by the two methods are very close. But there are slight differences between the two methods for faint stars in IC 2714. The maximum likelihood method selects more faint stars outside of the main-sequence stripe. We conclude that the maximum likelihood method is more likely affected by field stars.
