Computational Particle Physics for Event Generators and Data Analysis [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2012 High-energy physics data analysis relies heavily on the comparison between experimental and simulated data as stressed lately by the Higgs search at LHC and the recent identification of a Higgs-like new boson.

Interpretable Joint Event-Particle Reconstruction for Neutrino Physics at NOvA with Sparse CNNs and Transformers [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The complex events observed at the NOvA long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment contain vital information for understanding the most elusive particles in the standard model. The NOvA detectors observe interactions of neutrinos from the NuMI beam at Fermilab. Associating the particles produced in these interaction events to their source particles,

Pre-training strategy using real particle collision data for event classification in collider physics [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This study aims to improve the performance of event classification in collider physics by introducing a pre-training strategy. Event classification is a typical problem in collider physics, where the goal is to distinguish the signal events of interest from background events as much as possible to search for new phenomena in nature.

Using neural networks as an event trigger in elementary particle physics experiments [PDF]
Proceedings of 1994 IEEE International Conference on Neural Networks (ICNN'94), 2002 Elementary particle physics experiments often have to deal with high data rates. In order to avoid having to write out all data that is occurring online processors, triggers are used to cull out the uninteresting data. These triggers are based on some particular aspect of the physics being examined. At times these aspects are often equivalent to simple

How-to: write a parton-level Monte Carlo particle physics event generator [PDF]
The European Physical Journal Plus, 2020 This article provides an introduction to the principles of particle physics event generators that are based on the Monte Carlo method. Following some preliminaries, instructions on how to build a basic parton-level Monte Carlo event generator for the hard interaction are given through exercises.
