Abstract

We apply a unified machine-learning framework based on normalizing flows (NFs) for the event-by-event reconstruction of invisible momenta and the subsequent evaluation of spin-sensitive observables in top-quark pair and dark-matter (DM) associated production processes. Building on recent studies in single-top + DM topologies, we extend the research to \(t\bar{t}+DM\) final state. Inputs to our networks combine low-level four-momenta and missing transverse energy with high-level kinematic and angular variables. We compare a baseline multilayer perceptron (MLP) regressor, an autoregressive flow and the conditional ‘‘ \(\nu\) -Flows’’ model–trained to learn the full conditional density. In these final states all the models perform well and demonstrate high reconstruction quality in independent regions split by \(m_{t\bar{t}}\) for validation purposes. We highlight the potential of this approach to be extended to 3 and 4 top-quark production.
