Overview
Dr. Barry Dillon is a lecturer in mathematics at the Intelligent Systems Research Centre (ISRC) within the School of Computing, Engineering and Intelligent Systems, Ulster University (UU).
With a background in particle physics, his main area of research is on how machine-learning can be used to enhance physics analyses at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment. Particularly on how these machine-learning techniques can be used to aide in the search for signatures of new particles in the data collected at the LHC.
Barry did his PhD in theoretical physics at the University of Sussex and held postdoctoral positions at the University of Plymouth (UK), the Jožef Stefan Institute (Slovenia), and at the University of Heidelberg (Germany). In this time he has worked on many topics in Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics, strong-field QED, particle phenomenology, and machine-learning.
