• Abstract summary: Particle accelerators can fault and abort operations for numerous reasons. These faults impact the availability of particle accelerators during scheduled run-time and hamper the efficiency and the overall science output. We apply anomaly detection techniques to predict any unusual behavior and perform preemptive actions to improve the total availability of particle accelerators.

• Abstract: Particle accelerators are complex and comprise thousands of components, with many pieces of equipment running at their peak power. Consequently, particle accelerators can fault and abort operations for numerous reasons. These faults impact the availability of particle accelerators during scheduled run-time and hamper the efficiency and the overall science output. To avoid these faults, we apply anomaly detection techniques to predict any unusual behavior and perform preemptive actions to improve the total availability of particle accelerators. Semi-supervised Machine Learning (ML) based anomaly detection approaches such as autoencoders and variational autoencoders are often used for such tasks. However, supervised ML techniques such as Siamese Neural Network (SNN) models can outperform unsupervised or semi-supervised approaches for anomaly detection by leveraging the label information. One of the challenges specific to anomaly detection for particle accelerators is the data's variability due to system configuration changes. To address this challenge, we employ Conditional Siamese Neural Network (CSNN) models and Conditional Variational Auto Encoder (CVAE) models to predict errant beam pulses at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) under different system configuration conditions and compare their performance. We demonstrate that CSNN outperforms CVAE in our application.

  We propose a two-step unsupervised deep learning framework named as Latent Autoregressive Recurrent Model (CLARM) for learning dynamics of charged particles in accelerators. The CLARM can generate projections at various accelerator sampling modules by capturing and decoding the latent space representation. The results demonstrate that the generative and forecasting ability of the proposed approach is promising when tested against a variety of evaluation metrics.
