Mind the gap: The discrepancy between simulation and reality drives interpretations of the Galactic Center Excess

Sascha Caron, Christopher Eckner, Luc Hendriks +3

The Galactic Center Excess (GCE) in GeV gamma rays has been debated for over a decade, with the possibility that it might be due to dark matter annihilation or undetected point sou…

Rare and Different: Anomaly Scores from a combination of likelihood and out-of-distribution models to detect new physics at the LHC

Sascha Caron, Luc Hendriks, Rob Verheyen

We propose a new method to define anomaly scores and apply this to particle physics collider events. Anomalies can be either rare, meaning that these events are a minority in the n…

Identification of point sources in gamma rays using U-shaped convolutional neural networks and a data challenge

Boris Panes, Christopher Eckner, Luc Hendriks +5

At GeV energies, the sky is dominated by the interstellar emission from the Galaxy. With limited statistics and spatial resolution, accurately separating point sources is therefore…

A comparison of optimisation algorithms for high-dimensional particle and astrophysics applications

The DarkMachines High Dimensional Sampling Group, Csaba Balázs, Melissa van Beekveld +18

Optimisation problems are ubiquitous in particle and astrophysics, and involve locating the optimum of a complicated function of many parameters that may be computationally expensi…

Interactive web-based visualization of multi-dimensional physical and astronomical data

Faruk Diblen, Luc Hendriks, Bob Stienen +3

In this manuscript, we propose to expand the use of scientific repositories such as Zenodo and HEP Data, in particular in order to better examine multi-parametric solutions of phys…

Combining outlier analysis algorithms to identify new physics at the LHC

Melissa van Beekveld, Sascha Caron, Luc Hendriks +7

The lack of evidence for new physics at the Large Hadron Collider so far has prompted the development of model-independent search techniques. In this study, we compare the anomaly…
