Dear all,

We are happy to announce the upcoming IRIS-HEP Analysis Grand Challenge (AGC) workshop, a three-day event taking place May 3–5 at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. This workshop aims to bring together experts and all those interested to survey the current status of the AGC project and to build a concrete plan for addressing remaining items towards an AGC showcase event later this summer.

Registration and preliminary structure are available on Indico: https://indico.cern.ch/e/agc-workshop-2023

The in-person component will be hosted by the UW-Madison’s Data Science Institute; due to limited room capacity, in-person participation will be prioritized on a first come, first served basis. Zoom-based attendance is also an option.

The AGC is a project organized by IRIS-HEP and partners. It defines physics analysis tasks at realistic scale and complexity, including the handling of systematic uncertainties, binned statistical analysis, reinterpretation, and end-to-end optimization, with a focus on techniques envisioned for use at the HL-LHC. The AGC also provides implementations addressing those tasks, making use of new and advanced analysis tools developed by the community in the Python ecosystem. It relies on the development of the required cyberinfrastructure to be executed at scale.

Looking forward to seeing you at the workshop,
Alexander Held, Oksana Shadura (AGC co-coordinators)
Brian Bockelman, Kyle Cranmer (local hosts)
