Deep Learning and Uncertainty Quantification: Talks
- Alessandra Cappati (Universite Catholique de Louvain (UCL) (BE))
Correctly calibrated uncertainties have always been a fundamental pillar of particle physics. As machine learning becomes increasingly integrated into both experimental and theoretical workflows, it is essential that neural network predictions include robust and reliable uncertainty estimates.
This talk will review current approaches to uncertainty estimation in neural networks, focusing on...
Geometric learning pipelines have achieved state-of-the-art performance in High-Energy and Nuclear Physics reconstruction tasks like flavor tagging and particle tracking [1]. Starting from a point cloud of detector or particle-level measurements, a graph can be built where the measurements are nodes, and where the edges represent all possible physics relationships between the nodes. Depending...
Critical Heat Flux (CHF) represents a concern for the nuclear safety, as it leads to a rapid drop down in the heat transfer between a heated surface and the liquid coolant in the core of nuclear reactors. This could cause several issues to the system, including structural damage and release of radioactive material.
The main challenge related to CHF prediction is the highly non-linear...
