Sensitivity to New Physics Phenomena in Anomaly Detection: A Study of Untunable Hyperparameters
Fernando Abreu de Souza, Maura Barros, Nuno Filipe Castro +3
The search for physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) at collider experiments requires model-independent strategies to avoid missing possible discoveries of unexpected signals. An…
Deep Learning for the Classification of Quenched Jets
L. Apolinário, N. F. Castro, M. Crispim Romão +3
An important aspect of the study of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) in ultra-relativistic collisions of heavy ions is the ability to identify, in experimental data, a subset of the jets t…
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…
Use of a Generalized Energy Mover's Distance in the Search for Rare Phenomena at Colliders
M. Crispim Romao, N. F. Castro, J. G. Milhano +2
In this paper, we expand on the previously proposed concept of Energy Mover's Distance. The resulting observables are shown to provide a way of identifying rare processes in proton…
