    Panda: Self-distillation of Reusable Sensor-level Representations for High Energy Physics

    Samuel Young and Kazuhiro Terao
    We apply DINO-like self-distillation to unlabeled 3D images of particle interactions in a liquid argon time projection chamber. We show the model learns to cleanly separate particles and interaction types in latent space, which reduced the number of labeled images required to reach the state-of-the-art for semantic segmentation by 1,000x.
