Functional anatomy of Pythia-Herwig differences with Kolmogorov-Arnold networks

arXiv:2608. 15952v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Differences between high-energy event generators can arise at several stages of the collision simulation, from the hard scattering through parton showering and hadronization to the final event.

An Embedded RISC-V Evaluation of Kolmogorov--Arnold Networks in Hard-Constrained Recurrent Physics-Informed Models

arXiv:2608. 00737v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hard-constrained recurrent physics-informed networks (HRPINNs) embed known dynamics inside a recurrent numerical integrator and restrict a neural branch to learning only the residual dynamics that the first-principles model does not capture.

Mind the Gap: Navigating Inference with Optimal Transport Maps

The paper introduces a model calibration method using optimal transport to address discrepancies between simulation and experimental data in high-dimensional machine learning applications. Applied to jet tagging in particle physics, the technique calibrates a 128‑dimensional latent representation from a general‑purpose classifier, ensuring downstream derived quantities are properly calibrated. This enables more reliable use of foundation models for jet flavor analysis in LHC experiments and offers a general framework for correcting high‑dimensional simulations across scientific fields.

Comparison of Image Processing Models in Quark Gluon Jet Classification

The paper compares convolutional neural networks (CNN), Vision Transformers (ViT), and hierarchical Swin Transformers for quark‑gluon jet classification using a three‑channel jet‑image representation. CNN and Swin models outperform ViT, indicating that local jet substructure is crucial for discrimination. The study also shows that block‑wise fine‑tuning, Momentum Contrast pretraining, and a compact Swin variant can improve performance while reducing parameters.

Structural Kolmogorov-Arnold Convolutions: Learnable Function on the Values or the Filter Shape as Parameter-Efficient Alternative to Per-Edge Convolutional KANs

Convolutional Kolmogorov--Arnold Networks (KANs) replace the fixed weights of a convolutional kernel with learnable univariate functions. The dominant formulation attaches one such function to every kernel entry and lets it act on pixel values, expressive but parameter-heavy and prone to overfitting.
