Use of Machine Learning Technique to maximize the signal over background for $H \rightarrow ττ$
In recent years, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have won numerous contests in pattern recognition and machine learning. ANNS have been applied to problems ranging from speech recognition to prediction of protein secondary structure, classification of cancers, and gene prediction. Here, we intend to maximize the chances of finding the Higgs boson decays to two $\tau$ leptons in the pseudo dataset using a Machine Learning technique to classify the recorded events as signal or background.

Machine Learning on data with sPlot background subtraction
Data analysis in high energy physics often deals with data samples consisting of a mixture of signal and background events. The sPlot technique is a common method to subtract the contribution of the background by assigni…
BIG-bench Machine LearningMachine-learning non-stationary noise out of gravitational wave detectors
Signal extraction out of background noise is a common challenge in high precision physics experiments, where the measurement output is often a continuous data stream. To improve the signal to noise ratio of the detection…

This study presents an unsupervised machine learning approach for optimizing Profit and Loss (PnL) in quantitative finance. Our algorithm, akin to an unsupervised variant of linear regression, maximizes the Sharpe Ratio …
Pulse Shape Simulation and Discrimination using Machine-Learning Techniques
An essential metric for the quality of a particle-identification experiment is its statistical power to discriminate between signal and background. Pulse shape discrimination (PSD) is a basic method for this purpose in m…
BIG-bench Machine LearningNoise or Signal: The Role of Image Backgrounds in Object Recognition
We assess the tendency of state-of-the-art object recognition models to depend on signals from image backgrounds. We create a toolkit for disentangling foreground and background signal on ImageNet images, and find that (…
