• Authors: Felix J. Yu, Nicholas Kamp, Carlos A. Argüelles,
• Abstract summary: Neutrino telescopes detect rare interactions of particles produced in some of the most extreme environments in the Universe. Given their size and the high frequency of background interactions, these telescopes amass an enormous quantity of large variance, high-dimensional data. We present a novel approach, called om2vec, that employs transformer-based variational autoencoders to efficiently represent neutrino telescope events by learning compact and latent representations.

• Abstract: Neutrino telescopes detect rare interactions of particles produced in some of the most extreme environments in the Universe. This is accomplished by instrumenting a cubic-kilometer volume of naturally occurring transparent medium with light sensors. Given their substantial size and the high frequency of background interactions, these telescopes amass an enormous quantity of large variance, high-dimensional data. These attributes create substantial challenges for analyzing and reconstructing interactions, particularly when utilizing machine learning (ML) techniques. In this paper, we present a novel approach, called om2vec, that employs transformer-based variational autoencoders to efficiently represent neutrino telescope events by learning compact and descriptive latent representations. We demonstrate that these latent representations offer enhanced flexibility and improved computational efficiency, thereby facilitating downstream tasks in data analysis.

  We show that a Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) representation of a scene can be used to train dense object descriptors. We use an optimized NeRF to extract dense correspondences between multiple views of an object, and then use these correspondences as training data for learning a view-invariant representation of the object. Dense correspondence models supervised with our method significantly outperform off-the-shelf learned descriptors by 106%.
