• Title: Bayesian Neural Networks for Fast SUSY Predictions
• Authors: Braden Kronheim, Michelle Kuchera, Harrison Prosper, and Alexander Karbo
• Abstract summary: In this paper, machine learning is used to model the mapping from the parameter space of a BSM theory to some of its predictions. All three quantities are modeled with average percent errors of 3.34% or less and in a time significantly shorter than is possible with the supersymmetry codes from which the results are derived. Results are a further demonstration of the potential for machine learning to model accurately the mapping from the high dimensional spaces of BSM theories to their predictions.

• Abstract: One of the goals of current particle physics research is to obtain evidence for new physics, that is, physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM), at accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The searches for new physics are often guided by BSM theories that depend on many unknown parameters, which, in some cases, makes testing their predictions difficult. In this paper, machine learning is used to model the mapping from the parameter space of the phenomenological Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (pMSSM), a BSM theory with 19 free parameters, to some of its predictions. Bayesian neural networks are used to predict cross sections for arbitrary pMSSM parameter points, the mass of the associated lightest neutral Higgs boson, and the theoretical viability of the parameter points. All three quantities are modeled with average percent errors of 3.34% or less and in a time significantly shorter than is possible with the supersymmetry codes from which the results are derived. These results are a further demonstration of the potential for machine learning to model accurately the mapping from the high dimensional spaces of BSM theories to their predictions.

  Human trajectory forecasting helps to understand and predict human behaviors, enabling applications from social robots to self-driving cars. Model-free methods offer superior prediction accuracy but lack explainability, while model-based methods provide explainability but cannot predict well. We show that BNSP-SFM achieves up to a 50% improvement in prediction accuracy, compared with 11 state-of-the-art methods.

  The Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) is a unique phase of nuclear matter, theorized to have filled the Universe shortly after the Big Bang. To reconcile experimental observables with theoretical parameters, one requires many simulation runs of a complex physics model over a high-dimensional parameter space. We propose a new Additive Multi-Index Gaussian process (AdMIn-GP) model, which leverages a flexible additive structure on low-dimensional embeddings of the parameter space.

  Efforts to move beyond quantum mechanics have struggled to gain traction within the broader physics community. One such model is presented here, which concerns the interaction of a spin system with sequences of two Stern-Gerlach detectors. Rather than employing the traditional formalism of QM, the proposed model is supported by tools from discrete mathematics.

  We develop a spatial-temporal zero-inflated negative Binomial Graph Neural Network (STZINB-GNN) to quantify the uncertainty of the sparse travel demand. It analyzes spatial and temporal correlations using diffusion and temporal convolution networks, which are then fused to parameterize the probabilistic distributions of travel demand. The results demonstrate the superiority of STZINB-GNN over benchmark models, especially under high spatial-temporal resolutions.
