Taming modeling uncertainties with mass unspecific supervised tagging

Abstract We address the modeling dependence of jet taggers built using the method of mass unspecific supervised tagging, by using two different parton showering and hadronisation schemes. We find that the modeling dependence of the results – estimated by using different schemes in the design of the...

description Abstract We address the modeling dependence of jet taggers built using the method of mass unspecific supervised tagging, by using two different parton showering and hadronisation schemes. We find that the modeling dependence of the results – estimated by using different schemes in the design of the taggers and applying them to the same type of data – is rather small, even if the jet substructure varies significantly between the two schemes. These results add great value to the use of generic supervised taggers for new physics searches.
