Identification of charged particles in a multilayer detector by the energy loss technique may also be achieved by the use of a neural network. The performance of the network becomes worse when a large fraction of information is missing, for instance due to detector inefficiencies. Algorithms which provide a way to impute missing information have been developed over the past years. Among the various approaches, we focused on normal mixtures models in comparison with standard mean imputation and multiple imputation methods. Further, to account for the intrinsic asymmetry of the energy loss data, we considered skew-normal mixture models and provided a closed form implementation in the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm framework to handle missing patterns. The method has been applied to a test case where the energy losses of pions, kaons and protons in a six-layers Silicon detector are considered as input neurons to a neural network. Results are given in terms of reconstruction efficiency and purity of the various species in different momentum bins.

Decision trees are a popular family of models due to their attractive properties such as interpretability and ability to handle heterogeneous data. Concurrently, missing data is a prevalent occurrence that hinders performance of machine learning mode
ls. As such, handling missing data in decision trees is a well studied problem. In this paper, we tackle this problem by taking a probabilistic approach. At deployment time, we use tractable density estimators to compute the expected prediction of our models. At learning time, we fine-tune parameters of already learned trees by minimizing their expected prediction loss w.r.t. our density estimators. We provide brief experiments showcasing effectiveness of our methods compared to few baselines.
Particle detectors record the interactions of subatomic particles and their passage through matter. The identification of these particles is necessary for in-depth physics analysis. While particles can be identified by their individual behavior as th
ey travel through matter, the full context of the interaction in which they are produced can aid the classification task substantially. We have developed the first convolutional neural network for particle identification which uses context information. This is also the first implementation of a four-tower siamese-type architecture both for separation of independent inputs and inclusion of context information. The network classifies clusters of energy deposits from the NOvA neutrino detectors as electrons, muons, photons, pions, and protons with an overall efficiency and purity of 83.3% and 83.5%, respectively. We show that providing the network with context information improves performance by comparing our results with a network trained without context information.
We have developed a convolutional neural network (CNN) that can make a pixel-level prediction of objects in image data recorded by a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) for the first time. We describe the network design, training techniques
, and software tools developed to train this network. The goal of this work is to develop a complete deep neural network based data reconstruction chain for the MicroBooNE detector. We show the first demonstration of a networks validity on real LArTPC data using MicroBooNE collection plane images. The demonstration is performed for stopping muon and a $ u_mu$ charged current neutral pion data samples.
Future surveys focusing on understanding the nature of dark energy (e.g., Euclid and WFIRST) will cover large fractions of the extragalactic sky in near-IR slitless spectroscopy. These surveys will detect a large number of galaxies that will have onl
y one emission line in the covered spectral range. In order to maximize the scientific return of these missions, it is imperative that single emission lines are correctly identified. Using a supervised machine-learning approach, we classified a sample of single emission lines extracted from the WFC3 IR Spectroscopic Parallel survey (WISP), one of the closest existing analogs to future slitless surveys. Our automatic software integrates a SED fitting strategy with additional independent sources of information. We calibrated it and tested it on a gold sample of securely identified objects with multiple lines detected. The algorithm correctly classifies real emission lines with an accuracy of 82.6%, whereas the accuracy of the SED fitting technique alone is low (~50%) due to the limited amount of photometric data available (<=6 bands). While not specifically designed for the Euclid and WFIRST surveys, the algorithm represents an important precursor of similar algorithms to be used in these future missions.
We utilize techniques from deep learning to identify signatures of stellar feedback in simulated molecular clouds. Specifically, we implement a deep neural network with an architecture similar to U-Net and apply it to the problem of identifying wind-
driven shells and bubbles using data from magneto-hydrodynamic simulations of turbulent molecular clouds with embedded stellar sources. The network is applied to two tasks, dense regression and segmentation, on two varieties of data, simulated density and synthetic 12 CO observations. Our Convolutional Approach for Shell Identification (CASI) is able to obtain a true positive rate greater than 90%, while maintaining a false positive rate of 1%, on two segmentation tasks and also performs well on related regression tasks. The source code for CASI is available on GitLab.
