Representation Learning for Particle Collider Events - Livestream

Collider events at the Large Hadron Collider, when imbued with a metric which characterizes the 'distance' between two events, can be thought of as populating a data manifold in a metric space. The geometric properties of this manifold reflect the physics encoded in the distance metric. I will show how the geometry of collider events can be probed using Variational Autoencoders.
