CapsNets Continuing the Convolutional Quest

Sascha Diefenbacher, Hermann Frost, Gregor Kasieczka +2

Capsule networks are ideal tools to combine event-level and subjet information at the LHC. After benchmarking our capsule network against standard convolutional networks, we show h…

Deep-Learning Jets with Uncertainties and More

Sven Bollweg, Manuel Haussmann, Gregor Kasieczka +3

Bayesian neural networks allow us to keep track of uncertainties, for example in top tagging, by learning a tagger output together with an error band. We illustrate the main featur…

The Machine Learning Landscape of Top Taggers

G. Kasieczka, T. Plehn, A. Butter +24

Based on the established task of identifying boosted, hadronically decaying top quarks, we compare a wide range of modern machine learning approaches. Unlike most established metho…

Spotting hidden sectors with Higgs binoculars

Monika Blanke, Simon Kast, Jennifer M. Thompson +2

We explore signals of new physics with two Higgs bosons and large missing transverse energy at the LHC. Such a signature is characteristic of models for dark matter or other seclud…

Quark-Gluon Tagging: Machine Learning vs Detector

Gregor Kasieczka, Nicholas Kiefer, Tilman Plehn +1

Distinguishing quarks from gluons based on low-level detector output is one of the most challenging applications of multi-variate and machine learning techniques at the LHC. We fir…

QCD or What?

Theo Heimel, Gregor Kasieczka, Tilman Plehn +1

Autoencoder networks, trained only on QCD jets, can be used to search for anomalies in jet-substructure. We show how, based either on images or on 4-vectors, they identify jets fro…

Dark Matter from Electroweak Single Top Production

Tilman Plehn, Jennifer Thompson, Susanne Westhoff

Dark matter scenarios with spin-0 mediators in the -channel have be tested in well-established processes with missing energy, such as top-pair- and mono-jet-associated productio…

Tagging Jets in Invisible Higgs Searches

Anke Biekötter, Fabian Keilbach, Rhea Moutafis +2

Searches for invisible Higgs decays in weak boson fusion are a well-known laboratory for jets and QCD studies. We present a series of results on tagging jets and central jet activi…

Automation of NLO QCD and EW corrections with Sherpa and Recola

Benedikt Biedermann, Stephan Bräuer, Ansgar Denner +3

This publication presents the combination of the one-loop matrix-element generator Recola with the multipurpose Monte Carlo program Sherpa. Since both programs are highly automated…

Weak Boson Fusion at 100 TeV

Dorival Goncalves, Tilman Plehn, Jennifer M. Thompson

From the LHC runs we know that, with increasing collider energy, weak-boson-fusion Higgs production dominates as an environment for precision measurements. We show how a future had…

The Electroweak Sudakov approximation in SHERPA

Jennifer M Thompson

As experimental particle physics becomes more and more precise, it is becoming increasingly important for Monte Carlo simulations to improve the precision of their predictions. In…

Aspects of pQCD at a 100 TeV future hadron collider

Enrico Bothmann, Piero Ferrarese, Frank Krauss +3

In this publication we consider particle production at a future circular hadron collider with 100 TeV centre of mass energy within the Standard Model, and in particular their QCD a…

Di-Higgs phenomenology: The forgotten channel

Christoph Englert, Frank Krauss, Michael Spannowsky +1

Searches for multi-Higgs final states allow to constrain parameters of the SM (or extensions thereof) that directly relate to the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking. Multi-…

Triple vector boson production through Higgs-Strahlung with NLO multijet merging

S. Hoeche, F. Krauss, S. Pozzorini +3

Triple gauge boson hadroproduction, in particular the production of three -bosons at the LHC, is considered at next-to leading order accuracy in QCD. The NLO matrix elements are…
