Comprehensive uncertainties for generative models

Objectives:

  • Develop a method to include uncertainties, starting from Bayesian generative networks
  • Expand strategies to model systematic uncertainties using conditional training on nuisance parameters
  • Extend NNPDF methodology for architecture-driven and parameter-driven uncertainties to generative models
  • Study the effect of guided implicit bias on amplification factors between training and generated sample size

Expected Results:

  • Comprehensive uncertainty tool for generative networks
  • Generalisation of Bayesian normalising flows to other generative architectures
  • Implementation for LHC applications and beyond
  • Estimate of the model dependence for forward and backward simulation network
