Since the discovery of the acceleration of the expansion of the Universe, the concordence model describes the Universe as spatially flat curvature with about 5 % of baryonic matter, 26 % of cold dark matter and 68 % of Dark Energy. However, understanding the nature of both, the dark matter and dark energy components remains unknown this puzzle is one of the greatest challenges in contemporary...
Gamma-ray astronomy is a field of physics that studies astrophysics sources of high-energy photons. These uncharged particles travel in straight lines and are not deviated by magnetic fields along their journey to Earth, making possible the track of their origins. Once they interact with the atmosphere, they produce particle showers, emitting lights through the so-called Cherenkov process,...
Data and MC represent different domains. Supervised learning in MC needs to be transferred to the real data domain and MC mismodelling can reduce the performance of the transferred models. In this work we are implementing the Domain Adversarial Neural Network (DANN) concept to the standard Graph Neural Network (GNN) classification and regression tasks in the KM3NeT/ORCA experiment. We will...
Fink is a community alert broker specifically designed to operate under the extreme data volume and complexity of the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). It is a French-led international collaboration whose task is to select, add value and redistribute transient alerts to the astronomical community during the 10 years of LSST. The system is completely...
Simulation-Based Inference (SBI) is a promising Bayesian inference framework that alleviates the need for analytic likelihoods to estimate posterior distributions. Recent advances using neural density estimators in SBI algorithms have demonstrated the ability to achieve high-fidelity posteriors, at the expense of a large number of simulations ; which makes their application potentially very...
The reconstruction of particle trajectories is a key challenge of particle physics experiments as it directly impacts particle reconstruction and physics performances. To reconstruct these trajectories, different reconstruction algorithms are used sequentially. Each of these algorithms use many configuration parameters that need to be fine-tuned to properly account for the...
