FAIR Universe HiggsML Uncertainty Dataset and Competition

The FAIR Universe HiggsML Uncertainty Challenge focused on measuring the physical properties of elementary particles with imperfect simulators. Participants were required to compute and report confidence intervals for a parameter of interest regarding the Higgs boson while accounting for various systematic (epistemic) uncertainties. The dataset is a tabular dataset of 28 features and 280 million instances. Each instance represents a simulated proton-proton collision as observed at CERN's Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, Switzerland. The features of these simulations were chosen to capture key characteristics of different types of particles. These include primary attributes, such as the energy and three-dimensional momentum of the particles, as well as derived attributes, which are calculated from the primary ones using domain-specific knowledge. Additionally, a label feature designates each instance's type of proton-proton collision, distinguishing the Higgs boson events of interest from three background sources. As outlined in this paper, the permanent release of the dataset allows long-term benchmarking of new techniques. The leading submissions, including Contrastive Normalising Flows and Density Ratios estimation through classification, are described. Our challenge has brought together the physics and machine learning communities to advance our understanding and methodologies in handling systematic uncertainties within AI techniques.

Tsallis Entropy Regularization for Linearly Solvable MDP and Linear Quadratic Regulator

Shannon entropy regularization is widely adopted in optimal control due to its ability to promote exploration and enhance robustness, e.g., maximum entropy reinforcement learning known as Soft Actor-Critic. In this paper, Tsallis entropy, which is a one-parameter extension of Shannon entropy, is used for the regularization of linearly solvable MDP and linear quadratic regulators. We derive the solution for these problems and demonstrate its usefulness in balancing between exploration and sparsity of the obtained control law.

Imitation-regularized Optimal Transport on Networks: Provable Robustness and Application to Logistics Planning

Transport systems on networks are crucial in various applications, but face a significant risk of being adversely affected by unforeseen circumstances such as disasters. The application of entropy-regularized optimal transport (OT) on graph structures has been investigated to enhance the robustness of transport on such networks. In this study, we propose an imitation-regularized OT (I-OT) that mathematically incorporates prior knowledge into the robustness of OT. This method is expected to enhance interpretability by integrating human insights into robustness and to accelerate practical applications. Furthermore, we mathematically verify the robustness of I-OT and discuss how these robustness properties relate to real-world applications. The effectiveness of this method is validated through a logistics simulation using automotive parts data.

Resilience Evaluation of Entropy Regularized Logistic Networks with Probabilistic Cost

The demand for resilient logistics networks has increased because of recent disasters. When we consider optimization problems, entropy regularization is a powerful tool for the diversification of a solution. In this study, we proposed a method for designing a resilient logistics network based on entropy regularization. Moreover, we proposed a method for analytical resilience criteria to reduce the ambiguity of resilience. First, we modeled the logistics network, including factories, distribution bases, and sales outlets in an efficient framework using entropy regularization. Next, we formulated a resilience criterion based on probabilistic cost and Kullback--Leibler divergence. Finally, our method was performed using a simple logistics network, and the resilience of the three logistics plans designed by entropy regularization was demonstrated.
