Finding New Physics without learning about it: Anomaly Detection as a tool for Searches at Colliders

M. Crispim Romao, N. F. Castro, R. Pedro

In this paper we propose a new strategy, based on anomaly detection methods, to search for new physics phenomena at colliders independently of the details of such new events. For t…

Transferability of Deep Learning Models in Searches for New Physics at Colliders

M. Crispim Romao, N. F. Castro, R. Pedro +1

In this work we assess the transferability of deep learning models to detect beyond the standard model signals. For this we trained Deep Neural Networks on three different signal m…
