Description
The strength of the Higgs boson's coupling with other fermions and bosons is extensively studied during the first two LHC runs. In this work, the production of the Higgs boson, namely, Vector Boson Fusion (VBF) is studied. VBF is the process of two quarks, each of which emits a vector boson, W or Z boson, which then merge to create a Higgs boson. Machine learning (ML) models are built to discriminate Higgs boson events from non-Higgs boson events. The results of these models are compared with those obtained by making linear cuts.
