- Abstract: TAIGA is a hybrid observatory for gamma-ray astronomy at high energies in
range from 10 TeV to several EeV. It consists of instruments such as
TAIGA-IACT, TAIGA-HiSCORE, and others. TAIGA-HiSCORE, in particular, is an
array of wide-angle timing Cherenkov light stations. TAIGA-HiSCORE data enable
to reconstruct air shower characteristics, such as air shower energy, arrival
direction, and axis coordinates. In this report, we propose to consider the use
of convolution neural networks in task of air shower characteristics
determination. We use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to analyze HiSCORE
events, treating them like images. For this, the times and amplitudes of events
recorded at HiSCORE stations are used. The work discusses a simple
convolutional neural network and its training. In addition, we present some
preliminary results on the determination of the parameters of air showers such
as the direction and position of the shower axis and the energy of the primary
particle and compare them with the results obtained by the traditional method.

Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) of gamma ray observatory TAIGA detect the Extesnive Air Showers (EASs)
The ability to segregate gamma rays images from the hadronic cosmic ray background is one of the main features of this type of detectors.
In actual IACT observations simultaneous observation of the background and the source of gamma ray is needed.
This observation mode (called wobbling) modifies images of events, which affects the quality of selection by neural networks.

Processes [65.13973319334625]
It is challenging to place sensors in a way that maximises the informativeness of their measurements, particularly in remote regions like Antarctica.
Probabilistic machine learning models can suggest informative sensor placements by finding sites that maximally reduce prediction uncertainty.
This paper proposes using a convolutional Gaussian neural process (ConvGNP) to address these issues.
