Generative Amplification with Surrogate Monte Carlo

Henning Bahl, Tilman Plehn, Rebecca Revelli

Amplitude surrogates for LHC simulations build on generative amplification, the fact that a surrogate trained on an expensive and small training dataset describes the smooth amplit…

Local Conformal Predictions for Calibrated Surrogates

Suprio Dubey, Henning Bahl, Anja Butter +2

Neural network surrogates for LHC scattering amplitudes require trustworthy uncertainty estimates, a challenging task given the non-Gaussian systematics. We target it using conform…

One Generator, Any Process: LLM-Conditioning for the LHC

Henning Bahl, Tilman Plehn, Daniel Schiller +1

Neural network training for LHC event generation should, ideally, benefit from common high-level patterns in different processes. We propose novel conditioning schemes for continuo…

Sensitivity to new physics: single-Higgs couplings vs. the trilinear Higgs coupling

Henning Bahl, Johannes Braathen, Martin Gabelmann +4

The trilinear Higgs self-coupling provides a unique probe of the structure of the Higgs potential and of the nature of the electroweak phase transition, and constitutes a key targe…

Scaling laws for amplitude surrogates

Henning Bahl, Victor Bresó-Pla, Anja Butter +1

Scaling laws describing the dependence of neural network performance on the amount of training data, the spent compute, and the network size have emerged across a huge variety of m…
