Books By David Walter - Author

I studied physics at KIT in Karlsruhe, Germany with the main subjects on theoretical particle physics, experimental particle physics, and data analysis. In summer 2017 I joined the CMS experiment to work for my master's thesis project on improvements in deep neural network algorithms for the identification of jets with b quarks. I showed that by using novel machine learning techniques based on domain adaptation the difference between data and simulation can be mitigated. Afterward, I moved to Hamburg where I started my PhD at the DESY research center. My main project was the analysis of proton-proton collision data recorded by the CMS experiment, where I studied the production of a single top quark in association with a Z boson (tZq). During this time, I also co-supervised a graduate student on a related project. Today, I am a level 3 tX convener for CMS and organize by-weekly meetings and support and review analyses from the early stages. As the HepData contact person, I organize thedata preservation of
