Description
Motivated by the high computational costs of classical simulations, machine-learned generative models can be extremely useful in particle physics and elsewhere. They become especially attractive when surrogate models can efficiently learn the underlying distribution, such that a generated sample outperforms a training sample of limited size. This kind of GANplification has been observed for simple Gaussian models [1] and large ranges of training sample sizes. In this talk, we extend this histogram based method to show the same effect for a physics simulation, specifically photon showers in an electromagnetic calorimeter [2].
