New model-stitching technique diagnoses representation gaps in physics jet taggers

Researchers have developed a "model-stitching" technique to diagnose representation gaps in jet-tagger models used in high-energy physics. This method links frozen early layers of one network with frozen late layers of another, trained via a linear map. The study found that a known deficit in the Lund representation, specifically the primary declustering branch, is indeed representational rather than computational. Rebuilding the representation using the full Cambridge/Aachen declustering tree partially repaired this deficit, though the network still primarily relies on the primary branch for information. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel diagnostic tool for understanding and improving the performance of machine learning models in scientific research.

    What the Primary Lund Plane Omits: A Model-Stitching Diagnosis of a Jet-Tagger Representation Gap

    arXiv:2610.37137v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Lund-plane and Particle Transformer (ParT) jet taggers can differ in performance because one representation is weaker, or because a weaker downstream computation reads an adequate one. Standalone performance cannot separate these.…
