• Authors: Junze Liu, Aishik Ghosh, Dylan Smith, Pierre Baldi, Daniel Whiteson
• Abstract summary: Generative models can provide more rapid sample production, but currently require significant effort to optimize performance for specific detector geometries. We develop a $textitgeometry-aware$ autoregressive model, which learns how the calorimeter response varies with geometry. The geometry-aware model outperforms a baseline unaware model by over $50%$ in several metrics.

• Abstract: Generation of simulated detector response to collision products is crucial to data analysis in particle physics, but computationally very expensive. One subdetector, the calorimeter, dominates the computational time due to the high granularity of its cells and complexity of the interactions. Generative models can provide more rapid sample production, but currently require significant effort to optimize performance for specific detector geometries, often requiring many models to describe the varying cell sizes and arrangements, without the ability to generalize to other geometries. We develop a $\textit{geometry-aware}$ autoregressive model, which learns how the calorimeter response varies with geometry, and is capable of generating simulated responses to unseen geometries without additional training. The geometry-aware model outperforms a baseline unaware model by over $50\%$ in several metrics such as the Wasserstein distance between the generated and the true distributions of key quantities which summarize the simulated response. A single geometry-aware model could replace the hundreds of generative models currently designed for calorimeter simulation by physicists analyzing data collected at the Large Hadron Collider. This proof-of-concept study motivates the design of a foundational model that will be a crucial tool for the study of future detectors, dramatically reducing the large upfront investment usually needed to develop generative calorimeter models.

  We show that generative models have the potential to provide geometries by generalizing geometries over a large dataset of simulations. In particular, we leverage diffusion probabilistic models trained on XFOIL simulations to synthesize two-dimensional airfoil geometries conditioned on given aerodynamic features and constraints. We show that the models are able to generate diverse candidate designs for identical requirements and constraints, effectively exploring the design space to provide multiple starting points to optimization procedures.

HGNS consists of a subsurface graph neural network (SGNN) to model the evolution of fluid flows, and a 3D-U-Net to model the evolution of pressure. Using an industry-standard subsurface flow dataset (SPE-10) with 1.1 million cells, we demonstrate that HGNS is able to reduce the inference time up to 18 times compared to standard subsurface simulators.
