X-ray free-electron lasers provide ultrashort X-ray pulses with durations typically in the order of femtoseconds, but recently even entering the attosecond regime. The technological evolution of XFELs towards well-controllable light sources for precise metrology of ultrafast processes can only be achieved using new diagnostic capabilities for characterizing X-ray pulses at the attosecond frontier. The spectroscopic technique of photoelectron angular streaking has successfully proven how to non-destructively retrieve the exact time-energy structure of XFEL pulses on a single-shot basis. By using deep learning algorithms, we show how this technique can be leveraged from its proof-of-principle stage towards routine diagnostics at XFELs providing precise feedback in real time.
