Using the multi-wavelength COSMOS survey (Scoville et al. 2006), we develop a method based on purely photometric data to separate the faint VLA-COSMOS radio population into star-forming (SF) galaxies and active-galactic nuclei (AGN). Based on this classification method we select SF galaxies within our sample and present first results on the cosmic (dust-obscured) star-formation history based on VLA-COSMOS (Schinnerer et al. 2006) radio data.
