Resonance Searches with Machine Learned Likelihood Ratios
read the original abstract
We demonstrate the power of machine-learned likelihood ratios for resonance searches in a benchmark model featuring a heavy Z' boson. The likelihood ratio is expressed as a function of multivariate detector level observables, but rather than being calculated explicitly as in matrix-element-based approaches, it is learned from a joint likelihood ratio which depends on latent information from simulated samples. We show that bounds drawn using the machine learned likelihood ratio are tighter than those drawn using a likelihood ratio calculated from histograms.

Higgs Signal Strength Estimation with Machine Learning under Systematic Uncertainties
SAGE, a dual-branch GNN trained under nuisance fluctuations, estimates the Higgs signal strength with near-nominal coverage (0.662-0.683) but wider intervals than the top FAIR-HUC leaderboard methods.
