Exploring parameter spaces with artificial intelligence and machine learning black-box optimisation algorithms

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:	Constraining Beyond the Standard Model theories usually involves scanning highly multi-dimensional parameter spaces and check observable predictions against experimental bounds and theoretical constraints. Such task is often timely and computationally expensive, especially when the model is severely constrained and thus leading to very low random sampling efficiency. In this work we tackled this challenge using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning search algorithms used for Black-Box optimisation problems. Using the cMSSM and the pMSSM parameter spaces, we consider both the Higgs mass and the Dark Matter Relic Density constraints to study their sampling efficiency and parameter space coverage. We find our methodology to produce orders of magnitude improvement of sampling efficiency whilst reasonably covering the parameter space.
