Description

Several ongoing projects, involving data analysis using jet substructure and machine learning method will be summarised. ATLAS boosted heavy neutrino search and the measurement of several substructure observables in different topologies will be mentioned. The former is a precursor of several other planned searched in unusual topologies. Jet tagging using modern machine learning methods is another active area. We will also cover the analysis of medical data using machine learning methods.
