PoLArMAE representations. Three examples of particle trajectories after being encoded with PoLArMAE, showing their representations after being cast to RGB space using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The cool thing about this is that the model learned on its own to encode different particle trajectories separately, despite in some situations overlapping or coming from the same vertex.

Demonstration of Dichroicons. A "money plot" for Dichroicons, a novel neutrino detector instrument that can "sort" photons from different wavelengths into different detectors using dichroic filters. Usually, neutrino detectors can only detect the directional photons (left) generated as Cherenkov radiation or the very bright isotropic photons (right) generated as scintillation. Detecting photons from both processes would be extremely helpful in e.g., neutrinoless double beta decay experiments, and this plot shows that the Dichroicon can do it!
