IAFormer uses boost-invariant pairwise quantities and differential attention to create a sparse Transformer that achieves state-of-the-art classification on top-quark and quark-gluon jet datasets while using over an order of magnitude fewer parameters than prior Particle Transformer models.

abstract
Machine learning based on convolutional neural networks can be used to study jet images from the LHC. Top tagging in fat jets offers a well-defined framework to establish our DeepTop approach and compare its performance to QCD-based top taggers. We first optimize a network architecture to identify top quarks in Monte Carlo simulations of the Standard Model production channel. Using standard fat jets we then compare its performance to a multivariate QCD-based top tagger. We find that both approaches lead to comparable performance, establishing convolutional networks as a promising new approach for multivariate hypothesis-based top tagging.

Explainability techniques applied to LundNet show that assigned node importance correlates with classical jet substructure observables such as N-subjettiness ratios and energy correlation functions, with shifts across transverse-momentum regimes.
