Abstract

A measurement of Higgs boson production in association with a top quark pair in the bottom anti-bottom Higgs boson decay channel and leptonic final states is presented. The analysis uses $140\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $13\,\mathrm{TeV}$ proton proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. A particular focus is placed on the role played by transformer neural networks in discriminating signal and background processes via multi-class discriminants and in reconstructing the Higgs boson transverse momentum. These powerful multi-variate analysis techniques significantly improve the analysis over a previous measurement using the same dataset.
