arXiv:2606. 14813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Jet tagging at the Large Hadron Collider increasingly relies on deep learning models trained on massive simulated datasets, leading to high computational costs and limited robustness to detector mismodeling.

The paper introduces a data‑driven method for pairing events at the Large Hadron Collider using the energy mover's distance (EMD) to measure similarity, thereby creating augmentation‑free views for self‑supervised pre‑training. By matching distinct events based on EMD, the approach preserves the physics content of each event without handcrafted distortions. Experiments on QCD jets demonstrate that this pairing technique yields semantic jet embeddings with downstream discrimination power comparable to or better than traditional augmentation‑based baselines.

The paper presents deep‑learning trigger algorithms for the Hyper‑Kamiokande water Cherenkov detector, targeting low‑energy neutrino events below 7 MeV. It compares a supervised neural‑network classifier with two anomaly‑detection methods—an autoencoder and a Manifold Projection‑Diffusion Recovery model—showing the supervised model achieves a 76.7 % signal efficiency for 3 MeV electrons, far surpassing the 26.4 % efficiency of a traditional hit‑count trigger. GPU‑based runtime tests indicate per‑window inference latencies well below one millisecond.
