Optimization of di-tau mass reconstruction in the ATLAS experiment using a deep neural network — Klaus Desch, Philip Bechtle, Christian Grefe, Lena Herrmann, and •Ramy Hmaid — Rheinische-Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn

A major challenge of identifying Higgs decays to tau leptons is the similarity of Higgs- and Z-Boson decays, due to their similar mass and at least least two unobservable neutrinos in the final state.

We will present a regression neural network that determines the invariant mass of the reconstructed di-tau system and compare its performance with existing solutions for this problem. In addition, the stability of the neural network response under different training conditions will be discussed.
