Quirk SUEP

David Curtin, Sascha Dreyer, Max Fusté Costa +6

We propose searching for physics beyond the Standard Model in the low-transverse-momentum tracks accompanying hard-scatter events at the LHC. TeV-scale resonances connected to a da…

Weakly supervised anomaly detection with event-level variables

Liam Brennan, Tamas Almos Vami, Oz Amram +7

We introduce a new topology for weakly supervised anomaly detection searches, di-object plus~X. In this topology, one looks for a resonance decaying to two standard model particles…

Back To The Roots: Tree-Based Algorithms for Weakly Supervised Anomaly Detection

Thorben Finke, Marie Hein, Gregor Kasieczka +6

Weakly supervised methods have emerged as a powerful tool for model-agnostic anomaly detection at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). While these methods have shown remarkable perform…

The Interplay of Machine Learning--based Resonant Anomaly Detection Methods

Tobias Golling, Gregor Kasieczka, Claudius Krause +6

Machine learning--based anomaly detection (AD) methods are promising tools for extending the coverage of searches for physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM). One class of AD metho…

Resonant anomaly detection without background sculpting

Anna Hallin, Gregor Kasieczka, Tobias Quadfasel +2

We introduce a new technique named Latent CATHODE (LaCATHODE) for performing "enhanced bump hunts", a type of resonant anomaly search that combines conventional one-dimensional bum…

Classifying Anomalies THrough Outer Density Estimation (CATHODE)

Anna Hallin, Joshua Isaacson, Gregor Kasieczka +6

We propose a new model-agnostic search strategy for physics beyond the standard model (BSM) at the LHC, based on a novel application of neural density estimation to anomaly detecti…
