We present a novel approach for the integration of scattering cross sections and the generation of partonic event samples in high-energy physics. We propose an importance sampling technique capable of overcoming typical deficiencies of existing approaches by incorporating neural networks. The method guarantees full phase space coverage and the exact reproduction of the desired target distribution, in our case given by the squared transition matrix element. We study the performance of the algorithm for a few representative examples, including top-quark pair production and gluon scattering into three- and four-gluon final states.

Schr\"{o}dinger Generator for High-Dimensional Integration and Sampling on Quantum Many-Body States
A two-stage sampler (adaptive marginal map plus normalizing flow, then resampling) is proposed and shown on model nuclear densities up to D=624, though a core Jacobian equation appears sign-inconsistent.

An Optimal Transportation Approach for Improved Confidence Intervals
Optimal-transport couplings are used to construct confidence intervals that reduce coverage error relative to classical quantile-based intervals, with consistency theory and data-driven hyperparameters.
