Pipeline for performance evaluation of flavour tagging dedicated Graph Neural Network algorithms

Abstract

Machine Learning is a rapidly expanding field with a wide range of applications in science. In the field of physics, the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator, utilizes Neural Networks for various tasks, including flavour tagging. Flavour tagging is the process of identifying the flavour of the hadron that initiates a jet in a collision event, and it is an essential aspect of many Standard Model and Beyond the Standard Model research. Graph Neural Networks are currently the primary machine-learning tool used for flavour tagging. Here, we present the AUTOGRAPH pipeline, a completely customizable tool designed with a user-friendly interface to provide easy access to the Graph Neural Networks algorithm used for flavour tagging.
