Unveiling the pole structure of S-matrix using deep learning

Particle scattering is a powerful tool to unveil the nature of various subatomic phenomena. The key quantity is the scattering amplitude whose analytic structure carries the information of the quantum states. In this work, we demonstrate our first step attempt to extract the pole configuration of inelastic scatterings using the deep learning method. Among various problems, motivated by the recent new hadron phenomena, we develop a curriculum learning method of deep neural network to analyze coupled channel scattering problems. We show how effectively the method works to extract the pole configuration associated with resonances in the $pi N$ scatterings.
