Description

Top quarks are unique probes of the standard model (SM) predictions and have the potential to be a window for physics beyond the SM (BSM). Top quarks decay to a $Wb$ pair, and the $W$ can decay in leptons or jets. In a top pair event, assigning jets to their correct source is a challenge. In this study, I studied different methods for improving top reconstruction. The main motivation was to use Deep Learning Techniques in order to enhance the precision of top reconstruction.
