One-loop matrix element emulation with factorisation awareness

Abstract

Abstract In this article we present an emulation strategy for one-loop matrix elements. This strategy is based on the factorisation properties of matrix elements and is an extension of the work presented in [1]. We show that a percent-level accuracy can be achieved even for large multiplicity processes. The point accuracy obtained is such that it dwarfs the statistical accuracy of the training sample which allows us to use our model to augment the size of the training set by orders of magnitude without additional evaluations of expensive one-loop matrix elements.
