Neutrino Flavor Classification in ICARUS Experiment Using Convolutional Visual Networks

Abstract

In this work, I adapt the Convolutional Visual Network (CVN) approach to the ICARUS detector by incorporating TPC stitching methods inspired by NuGraph. The stitching technique used here is unique to ICARUS, designed specifically to handle its distinct detector segmentation s. I then retrain the network using ICARUS-specific data. This study underscores the flexibility of deep learning models in high-energy physics and the importance of accounting for detector-specific features when transferring machine learning techniques between experiments. This dissertation presents the methods, classification performance, and insights gained from applying CVN to ICARUS data.
