Abstract

Measuring the triple Higgs coupling is a crucial task in the LHC and future collider experiments. We apply the Message Passing Neural Network (MPNN) to the study of the non-resonant Higgs pair production process pphhpp \to hh in the final state with 2b+2+ETmiss2b + 2\ell + E_{\rm T}^{\rm miss} at the LHC. Although the MPNN can improve the signal significance, it is still challenging to observe such a process at the LHC. We find that a 2σ2\sigma upper bound (including a 10\% systematic uncertainty) on the production cross section of the Higgs pair is 3.7 times the predicted SM cross section at the LHC with the luminosity of 3000 fb1^{-1}, which will limit the triple Higgs coupling to the range of [3,11.5][-3,11.5].
