In the past few years a wide variety of applications of neural networks to pattern recognition in experimental high-energy physics has appeared. The neural network solutions are in general of high quality, and, in a number of cases, are superior to those obtained using "traditional'' methods. But neural networks are of particular interest in high-energy physics for another reason as well: much of the pattern recognition must be performed online, that is, in a few microseconds or less. The inherent parallelism of neural network algorithms, and the ability to implement them as very fast hardware devices, may make them an ideal technology for this application.

A classification problem in high energy physics has been solved on simulated data using a simple multilayer perceptron comprising binary units which was trained with the CHIR algorithm. The unstable training of such a network on a nonseparable set has been overcome by selecting those weight vectors with good performance while providing a flexible choice of the two types of classification errors. Specific features of the problem have been exploited in order to simplify and optimize the solution which has been compared to the popular backpropagation algorithm and found to perform on a similar level. Additional aspects of this work are the use of the CHIR algorithm on continuous input and incorporating the classic idea of a Φ-machine in a multilayer perceptron.

Abstract We apply adversarial domain adaptation to reduce sample bias in a classification machine learning algorithm. We add a gradient reversal layer to a neural network to simultaneously classify signal versus background events, while minimising the difference of the classifier response to a background sample using an alternative MC model. We show this on the example of simulated events at the LHC with $t\bar{t}H$ signal versus $t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ background classification.
