Processes in which a top quark-antiquark pair is produced in association with additional heavy flavor jets are difficult to separate from each other. Such processes include tt+bb and tt+cc, where the additional heavy flavor quark-antiquark pair stems from gluon splitting, as well as tt+H with H→bb and tt+Z with Z→bb. Machine learning methods based on graph neural networks are promising techniques for enhancing the classification accuracy of these events in the tt+heavy flavor phase space. In this talk the latest status of a simultaneous measurement of the production cross section of a top quark-antiquark pair in association with heavy flavor jets in the dileptonic decay channel at the CMS experiment is presented.
