Simulation-based inference methods for particle physics

Johann Brehmer, Kyle Cranmer

Our predictions for particle physics processes are realized in a chain of complex simulators. They allow us to generate high-fidelity simulated data, but they are not well-suited f…

Flows for simultaneous manifold learning and density estimation

Johann Brehmer, Kyle Cranmer

We introduce manifold-learning flows (M-flows), a new class of generative models that simultaneously learn the data manifold as well as a tractable probability density on that mani…

The frontier of simulation-based inference

Kyle Cranmer, Johann Brehmer, Gilles Louppe

Many domains of science have developed complex simulations to describe phenomena of interest. While these simulations provide high-fidelity models, they are poorly suited for infer…

Mining for Dark Matter Substructure: Inferring subhalo population properties from strong lenses with machine learning

Johann Brehmer, Siddharth Mishra-Sharma, Joeri Hermans +2

The subtle and unique imprint of dark matter substructure on extended arcs in strong lensing systems contains a wealth of information about the properties and distribution of dark…

MadMiner: Machine learning-based inference for particle physics

Johann Brehmer, Felix Kling, Irina Espejo +1

Precision measurements at the LHC often require analyzing high-dimensional event data for subtle kinematic signatures, which is challenging for established analysis methods. Recent…

Effective LHC measurements with matrix elements and machine learning

Johann Brehmer, Kyle Cranmer, Irina Espejo +3

One major challenge for the legacy measurements at the LHC is that the likelihood function is not tractable when the collected data is high-dimensional and the detector response ha…
