| contents | In High Energy Physics, detailed calorimeter simulations and reconstructions are essential for accurate energy measurements and particle identification, but their high granularity makes them computationally expensive. Developing data-driven techniques capable of recovering fine-grained information from coarser readouts, a task known as calorimeter superresolution, offers a promising way to reduce both computational and hardware costs while preserving detector performance. This thesis investigates whether a generative model originally designed for fast simulation can be effectively applied to calorimeter superresolution. Specifically, the model proposed in arXiv:2308.11700 is re-implemented independently and trained on the CaloChallenge 2022 dataset based on the Geant4 Par04 calorimeter geometry. Finally, the model's performance is assessed through a rigorous statistical evaluation framework, following the methodology introduced in arXiv:2409.16336, to quantitatively test its ability to reproduce the reference distributions. |
