Abstract The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC [1]), an upgrade of the LHC, is set to become operational in 2029, aiming achieve instantaneous luminosities 5–7.5 times larger than nominal value LHC. However, unlocking full physics potential at this much higher luminosity level necessitates a tenfold increase data bandwidth processed by ATLAS. This poses significant challenges design Trigger and Data Acquisition systems. To address these challenges, baseline architecture has been...

Diffusion models have emerged as a powerful framework for generative modeling, achieving state-of-the-art performance across various tasks. However, they face several inherent limitations, including training-sampling gap, information leakage in the progressive noising process, and inability to incorporate advanced loss functions like perceptual adversarial losses during training. To address these challenges, we propose an innovative end-to-end training that aligns sampling processes by...
