Robust semi-parametric signal detection in particle physics with classifiers decorrelated via optimal transport
Purvasha Chakravarti, Lucas Kania, Olaf Behnke +2
Searches for signals of new physics in particle physics are usually done by training a supervised classifier to separate a signal model from the known Standard Model physics (also…
