Evidence for associated production of a Higgs boson with a top quark pair in final states with electrons, muons, and hadronically decaying $τ$ leptons at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV — mentioned by thiagotomei

CMS physicist here! As our ATLAS colleagues, we also use boosted decision trees extensively in our analysis, as well as the so-called Matrix Element Method -- a way to combine the knowledge of the differential theoretical cross-sections for the signal and background processes with our knowledge of the experimental resolution of our detectors. More details are available in [1]. However, in CMS we have recently started using Deep Neural Networks. These are used for the separation of signal and background events in the "single-lepton channel" of the search, i.e., the search where the Higgs boson…
