Abstract: This review will focus on the typical applications of deep neural network (DNN) models in the fields of particle and nuclear physics, emphasizing their fundamental properties, such as representation learning and generalization. We also plan to explore the use of generative models for simulating particle interactions.

Abstract: Metody sztucznej inteligencji (SI) stają się standardowymi narzędziami badawczymi również w naukach fizycznych. Modele oparte na głębokich sieciach neuronowych są wykorzystywane zarówno do optymalizacji złożonych systemów obliczeniowych, jak i do analizy danych bez bezpośredniego odwołania do uprzednio przyjętych modeli teoretycznych. Szczególnie interesujące są zastosowania wykorzystujące zdolności generalizacyjne modeli głębokich do ekstrapolowania wiedzy o zjawiskach fizycznych poza zakres bezpośredniej weryfikacji empirycznej. Równolegle rozwija się nurt badań nad tzw. modelami interpretowalnymi, których celem jest identyfikacja ukrytych zależności oraz – potencjalnie – nowych praw fizycznych. Rodzi to zasadnicze pytania epistemologiczne: czy modele SI pełnią jedynie funkcję efektywnych narzędzi predykcyjnych, czy też mogą być traktowane jako nośniki wyjaśnienia? Jaki jest status poznawczy twierdzeń uzyskiwanych za pomocą systemów, których wewnętrzna struktura pozostaje w dużej mierze nieprzejrzysta? Podstawowym problemem metodologicznym pozostaje zatem kwestia rozumienia logiki działania głębokich sieci neuronowych oraz kryteriów ich interpretacji w kontekście teorii fizycznych. W wystąpieniu omówię powyższe zagadnienia, koncentrując się na ich implikacjach dla dalszego rozwoju fizyki.

Abstract: Podczas referatu przedstawię główne wyzwania stojące przed fizyką oddziaływań fundamentalnych oraz sposoby, w jakie badacze wykorzystują metody uczenia maszynowego w swoich analizach. Jako przykład omówię fizykę oddziaływań leptonów z materią jądrową. Pokażę również, w jaki sposób do modelowania tych procesów stosujemy transfer learning i modele generatywne.
Talk, Neutrino Physics and Machine Learning 2025 (NPML 2025), University of Tokyo, Japan, 27-31 October 2025
Abstract: In this talk, I will review recent work from our group on developing deep learning models for lepton–nucleus interactions. I will begin by applying generative adversarial networks (GANs) to simulate neutrino and antineutrino collisions with nucleons. Our models encompass both charged-current quasielastic and inclusive interactions of muon neutrinos with a carbon target, offering detailed predictions for the final charged lepton. I will then discuss how transfer learning can extend knowledge from one scattering process to another. For example, I will show that a deep neural network for cross-sections, pre-trained on electron–carbon scattering data, can accurately reproduce electron scattering in helium-3, lithium, oxygen, calcium, aluminum, and iron after only minimal fine-tuning with limited new measurements. Finally, I will present results on applying domain adaptation to GAN models that generate neutrino and antineutrino interactions with nuclei. This talk is based on the following references: Phys. Rev. Lett. 135, 052502; Phys. Rev. D 112 (2025) 1, 013007; and arXiv:2508.12987.

Abstract: We present a deep learning approach to modeling inclusive electron–nucleus scattering cross sections using transfer learning, demonstrating how neural networks can effectively learn nuclear physical properties from limited experimental data. Initially trained on high-statistics electron–carbon scattering data, our model captures latent features that are transferable to other nuclei, such as lithium, oxygen, aluminum, calcium, and iron. This approach enables accurate predictions even in data-sparse regimes, revealing a robust internal representation of nuclear responses across different targets. Our results highlight the potential of representation learning to extract universal physical patterns and support data-driven modeling in nuclear and particle physics. The study illustrates how abstract, learned features can encapsulate domain knowledge, enabling generalization beyond the training distribution and reducing reliance on traditional theoretical models. To probe the method’s limitations, we applied it to the helium-3 target. The approach remained effective, although it required more extensive re-optimization. Finally, I will discuss the implications of this method for modeling neutrino-nucleus interactions. This talk is based mainly on the paper arXiv:2408.09936.

Abstract: The success of next-generation neutrino oscillation experiments, such as DUNE and Hyper-Kamiokande, relies heavily on our ability to predict neutrino-nuclei cross sections accurately. In my talk, I will demonstrate how deep learning techniques can enhance the models for neutrino and electron-nuclei scattering cross sections.
