Anomaly Detection in DUNE FD LArTPC Readouts

We designed and built an AI/ML model to detect anomalies in the DUNE far detector data. The model has been trained on simulated radiological background (rbkg) data, which is the major background for supernova burst neutrinos that we want to detect as anomaly in thios work. The trained model was evaluated on both new samples of radiological backgrounds and supernova burst neutrino events in the elastic scattering and charged current interaction channels. We found that the trained model can successfully identify supernova burst neutrino events as anomalies while identifying radiological backgrounds as nominal events.

Training NuGraph2 for ICARUS

This presentation describes the process of training NuGraph2, a Graphical Neural Network for event reconstruction, on simulated ICARUS neutrino event data. This began with an investigation into filtering ICARUS spacepoint data. Then NuGraph2 was repeatedly trained on three event samples, which were used for finding optimized machine-learning parameters and to find and fix the causes of several crashes in NuGraph2 s preprocessing and training scripts.
