First use of a neural network to analyze data from a collider experiment

The real story here is that ANL needs to fact check their press release. For a review of (previous) uses of machine learning in particle physics, see:

Among many many others.

The paper in this post might have been the first to use an autoencoder trained on collider data, but that qualification is buried further down.
