Jet Topics: Disentangling Quarks and Gluons at Colliders

We introduce jet topics: a framework to identify underlying classes of jets from collider data. Because of a close mathematical relationship between distributions of observables in jets and emergent themes in sets of documents, we can apply recent techniques in “topic modeling” to extract jet topics...
