LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+
L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153
We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…
Machine Learning on Heterogeneous, Edge, and Quantum Hardware for Particle Physics (ML-HEQUPP)
Julia Gonski, Jenni Ott, Shiva Abbaszadeh +118
The next generation of particle physics experiments will face a new era of challenges in data acquisition, due to unprecedented data rates and volumes along with extreme environmen…
Enabling Low-Latency Machine learning on Radiation-Hard FPGAs with hls4ml
Katya Govorkova, Julian Garcia Pardinas, Vladimir Loncar +5
This paper presents an end-to-end demonstration of a viable, ultra-fast, radiation-hard machine learning (ML) application on FPGAs, which could be used in future high-energy physic…
AutoSciDACT: Automated Scientific Discovery through Contrastive Embedding and Hypothesis Testing
Samuel Bright-Thonney, Christina Reissel, Gaia Grosso +6
Novelty detection in large scientific datasets faces two key challenges: the noisy and high-dimensional nature of experimental data, and the necessity of making statistically robus…
Anomaly preserving contrastive neural embeddings for end-to-end model-independent searches at the LHC
Kyle Metzger, Lana Xu, Mia Sodini +4
Anomaly detection - identifying deviations from Standard Model predictions - is a key challenge at the Large Hadron Collider due to the size and complexity of its datasets. This is…
It's not a FAD: first results in using Flows for unsupervised Anomaly Detection at 40 MHz at the Large Hadron Collider
Francesco Vaselli, Chang Sun, Thea Aarrestad +7
We present the first implementation of a Continuous Normalizing Flow (CNF) model for unsupervised anomaly detection within the realistic, high-rate environment of the Large Hadron…
