abstract
Machine learning has been applied to several problems in particle physics research, beginning with applications to high-level physics analysis in the 1990s and 2000s, followed by an explosion of applications in particle and event identification and reconstruction in the 2010s. In this document we discuss promising future research and development areas for machine learning in particle physics. We detail a roadmap for their implementation, software and hardware resource requirements, collaborative initiatives with the data science community, academia and industry, and training the particle physics community in data science. The main objective of the document is to connect and motivate these areas of research and development with the physics drivers of the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider and future neutrino experiments and identify the resource needs for their implementation. Additionally we identify areas where collaboration with external communities will be of great benefit.

Point-cloud ML models classify charm- and bottom-origin electrons at ~80% purity for 40% efficiency, outperforming a BDT baseline, with performance limited by intrinsic decay similarity.
Proof-of-concept for NLO matrix element method via POWHEG projections applied to fully leptonic WW production in SMEFT, demonstrating near-optimal classification of BSM versus SM events using lepton correlations.
RooAgent provides an LLM agent interface that translates natural-language prompts into calls to PyROOT analysis functions for high energy physics tasks, with support for multiple AI backends and tested on ZH simulations and ATLAS open data.
New correlated observables from the (P_Higgs, θ_Zγ) plane with XGBoost improve H→Zγ signal discrimination from Z/γ* background, raising S/B to 2.1% (electrons) and 3.4% (muons) near the Higgs mass.
Adversarial training enhances robustness of jet tagging classifiers while preserving performance, with loss surface geometry providing insights into correlations and vulnerability.
EasyScan_HEP 2 adds AI-agent interfaces to a HEP parameter scan framework for natural-language to .ini config translation and new sampler integration.
DNN classifiers with mass-dependent thresholds reduce expected 95% CL upper limits on H to mu tau cross sections by 36-46% versus collinear mass baseline, while a regression network improves mass resolution by up to 21%.
