Large Physics Model
A foundation model for high-energy physics developed by CERN in collaboration with Mistral, trained on billions of simulated proton-proton collision events from the LHC. It aims to unify and replace multiple specialized algorithms, covering tasks such as event reconstruction, particle identification, anomaly detection and detector design evaluation.
Timeline (last 90 days)
The first collaborative project is a foundation model called the "Large Physics Model," trained on billions of simulated particle collision events from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
The Large Physics Model will be used for four core tasks: reconstructing collision events, identifying particles, flagging anomalous signals, and evaluating future detector designs.
CERN calls the Large Physics Model "the first foundation model in the field of collider physics."
Neither side has stated whether the weights of the Large Physics Model will be open-sourced.
