description Abstract Tensor Networks, a numerical tool originally designed for simulating quantum many-body systems, have recently been applied to solve Machine Learning problems. Exploiting a tree tensor network, we apply a quantum-inspired machine learning technique to a very important and challenging big data problem in high-energy physics: the analysis and classification of data produced by the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. In particular, we present how to effectively classify so-called b-jets, jets originating from b-quarks from proton–proton collisions in the LHCb experiment, and how to interpret the classification results. We exploit the Tensor Network approach to select important features and adapt the network geometry based on information acquired in the learning process. Finally, we show how to adapt the tree tensor network to achieve optimal precision or fast response in time without the need of repeating the learning process. These results pave the way to the implementation of high-frequency real-time applications, a key ingredient needed among others for current and future LHCb event classification able to trigger events at the tens of MHz scale.
