Higgs physics confronts the MW anomaly
The recent high-precision measurement of the W mass by the CDF collaboration is in sharp tension with the Standard Model prediction as obtained by the electroweak fit. If confirmed, this finding can only be explained in terms of new physics effects.

A Qualitative Strategy for Fusion of Physics into Empirical Models for Process Anomaly Detection
To facilitate the automated online monitoring of power plants, a systematic and qualitative strategy for anomaly detection is presented. This strategy is essential to provide credible reasoning on why and when an empirical versus hybrid (i.e., physics ...

Finding new physics without learning about it: anomaly detection as a tool for searches at colliders
In this paper we propose a new strategy, based on anomaly detection methods, to search for new physics phenomena at colliders independently of the details of such new events.

Autoencoders for unsupervised anomaly detection in high energy physics
Autoencoders are widely used in machine learning applications, in particular for anomaly detection. Hence, they have been introduced in high energy physics as a promising tool for model-independent new physics searches.

Event-Based Anomaly Detection for Searches for New Physics
This paper discusses model-agnostic searches for new physics at the Large Hadron Collider using anomaly-detection techniques for the identification of event signatures that deviate from the Standard Model (SM).

Physics-guided contrastive temporal graph learning for anomaly detection and root-cause localization in industrial control systems. [PDF]
Industrial control systems generate complex multivariate time series and detecting anomalies without labelled attacks is still difficult. In this work we propose a physics guided contrastive temporal graph learning framework for anomaly detection and ...

Anomaly detection algorithms have been proved to be useful in the search of new physics beyond the Standard Model. However, a prerequisite for using an anomaly detection algorithm is that the signal to be sought is indeed anomalous.

Improving Variational Autoencoders for New Physics Detection at the LHC With Normalizing Flows
We investigate how to improve new physics detection strategies exploiting variational autoencoders and normalizing flows for anomaly detection at the Large Hadron Collider. As a working example, we consider the DarkMachines challenge dataset. We show how

Interpreting electroweak precision data including the W-mass CDF anomaly
We perform a global fit of electroweak data, finding that the anomaly in the W mass claimed by the CDF collaboration can be reproduced as a universal new-physics correction to the T parameter or |H † D μ H|2 operator.
