HEPTv2: End-to-End Efficient Point Transformer for Charged Particle Reconstruction (opens in new tab)

Charged-particle tracking -- reconstructing trajectories from sparse detector measurements -- is a fundamental high-energy-physics inference problem and a canonical example of learning under extreme combinatorial ambiguity. At the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), tracking must remain accurate and efficient despite unprecedented collision densities. Graph neural networks perform strongly, but incur substantial costs from graph co...
