State-of-the-art (SoTA) deep learning models have achieved tremendous improvements in jet classification performance while analyzing low-level inputs, but their decision-making processes have become increasingly opaque. We introduce an analysis model (AM) that combines several phenomenologically motivated neural networks to circumvent the interpretability issue while maintaining high...
Particle jets exhibit tree-like structures through stochastic showering and hadronization. The hierarchical nature of these structures aligns naturally with hyperbolic space, a non-Euclidean geometry that captures hierarchy intrinsically. Drawing upon the foundations of geometric learning, we introduce hyperbolic transformer models tailored for tasks relevant to jet analyses, such as...
