Role of denoisers in simulation-based inference from graph-structured data: a case study for position inference in an astroparticle detector by Venkat Roy, Aaron Higuera, Shixiao Liang, Christina Peters, Waheed U. Bajwa, Christopher D. Tunnell

“…While advances in denoising can be leveraged to address this challenge, many denoising techniques ignore the fact that experimental data in many scientific domains tends to be irregular/graph-structured. This paper addresses these two challenges by developing a kernel-based learnable graph (KBLG) denoiser, which can be used to denoise experimental graph-structured data. …”
