50. Applying Generative Models to Scientific Research

Fedor Ratnikov (Yandex School of Data Analysis (RU))

17/04/2019, 09:05

Surrogate generative models demonstrate extraordinary progress in current years. Although most applications are dedicated to image generation and similar commercial
goals, this approach is also very promising for natural sciences, especially for tasks like fast event simulation in HEP experiments. However, application of such generative models to scientific research implies specific...

47. DijetGAN: A Generative-Adversarial Network Approach for the Simulation of QCD Dijet Events at the LHC

Serena Palazzo (The University of Edinburgh (GB))

17/04/2019, 09:35

In this talk, I will present a Generative-Adversarial Network (GAN) based on convolutional neural networks that is used to simulate the production of pairs of jets at the LHC. The GAN is trained on events generated using MadGraph5 + Pythia8, and Delphes3 fast detector simulation. A number of kinematic distributions both at Monte Carlo truth level and after the detector simulation can be...

45. High Granularity Calorimeter Simulation using Generative Adversarial Networks

Gul Rukh Khattak (University of Peshawar (PK))

17/04/2019, 09:55

High Energy Physics simulation typically involves Monte Carlo method. Today >50% of WLCG resources are used for simulation that will increase further as detector granularity and luminosity increase. Machine learning has been very successful in the field of image recognition and generation. We have explored image generation techniques for speeding up HEP detector simulation. Calorimeter...

41. Deep generative models for fast shower simulation in ATLAS

Aishik Ghosh (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (FR))

The extensive physics program of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) relies on large scale and high fidelity simulation of the detector response to particle interactions. Current full simulation techniques using Geant4 provide accurate modeling of the underlying physics processes, but are inherently resource intensive. In light of the high-luminosity upgrade of the LHC and...

46. Fast Simulation Using Generative Adversarial Network in LHCB

Artem Maevskiy (National Research University Higher School of Economics (RU))

17/04/2019, 11:05

LHCb is one of the major experiments operating at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The richness of the physics program and the increasing precision of the measurements in LHCb lead to the need of ever larger simulated samples. This need will increase further when the upgraded LHCb detector will start collecting data in the LHC Run 3. Given the computing resources pledged for the production...

22. Model-Assisted GANs for the optimisation of simulation parameters and as an algorithm for fast Monte Carlo production

Mr Saul Alonso Monsalve (CERN)

17/04/2019, 11:25

We propose and demonstrate the use of a Model-Assisted Generative Adversarial Network to produce simulated images that accurately match true images through the variation of underlying model parameters that describe the image generation process. The generator learns the parameter values that give images that best match the true images. The best match parameter values that produce the most...

38. Event Generation and Statistical Sampling with Deep Generative Models

Sydney Otten (Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen)

17/04/2019, 11:45

We present a study for the generation of events from a physical process with generative deep learning. To simulate physical processes it is not only important to produce physical events, but also to produce the events with the right frequency of occurrence (density). We investigate the feasibility to learn the event generation and the frequency of occurrence with Generative Adversarial...

29. LUMIN - a deep learning and data science ecosystem for high-energy physics

Giles Chatham Strong (LIP Laboratorio de Instrumentacao e Fisica Experimental de Part)

17/04/2019, 12:05

[LUMIN][1] aims to become a deep-learning and data-analysis ecosystem for High-Energy Physics, and perhaps other scientific domains in the future. Similar to Keras and fastai it is a wrapper framework for a graph computation library (PyTorch), but includes many useful functions to handle domain-specific requirements and problems. It also intends to provide easy access to to state-of-the-art...
