Adversarially-trained autoencoders for robust unsupervised new physics searches

Abstract Machine learning techniques in particle physics are most powerful when they are trained directly on data, to avoid sensitivity to theoretical uncertainties or an underlying bias on the expected signal. To be able to train on data in searches for new physics, anomaly detection methods are im...
