Learning to Trigger: Reinforcement Learning at the Large Hadron Collider
Zixin Ding, Shaghayegh Emami, Giovanna Salvi +7
High-throughput scientific facilities such as the Large Hadron Collider depend on real-time event filtering (\textit{triggering}) under tight constraints on bandwidth, latency, and…
Patch Hierarchical Attention Transformer for Efficient Particle Jet Tagging
Aaron Wang, Zihan Zhao, Alan Xia +5
Real-time jet tagging is critical for identifying short-lived particle decays in the high-throughput detectors of the Large Hadron Collider, where real-time trigger systems respons…
Spatially Aware Linear Transformer (SAL-T) for Particle Jet Tagging
Aaron Wang, Zihan Zhao, Subash Katel +6
Transformers are very effective in capturing both global and local correlations within high-energy particle collisions, but they present deployment challenges in high-data-throughp…
The Future of Artificial Intelligence and the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (AI+MPS)
Andrew Ferguson, Marisa LaFleur, Lars Ruthotto +97
This community paper developed out of the NSF Workshop on the Future of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Mathematical and Physics Sciences (MPS), which was held in March 2025 w…
Towards a Self-Driving Trigger at the LHC: Adaptive Response in Real Time
Shaghayegh Emami, Cecilia Tosciri, Giovanna Salvi +7
Real-time data filtering and selection -- or trigger -- systems at high-throughput scientific facilities such as the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) must process ext…
Fast Jet Tagging with MLP-Mixers on FPGAs
Chang Sun, Jennifer Ngadiuba, Maurizio Pierini +1
We explore the innovative use of MLP-Mixer models for real-time jet tagging and establish their feasibility on resource-constrained hardware like FPGAs. MLP-Mixers excel in process…
