2.1 Posing the Unfolding Problem
This reveals one of the main challenges in developing a universal unfolder, which can be applied to unfold detector data for any physics process. Instead of developing a method able to learn a posterior P(x|y) to unfold detector data pertaining to a specific true underlying distribution, a universal unfolder aims to remove detector effects from any set of measured data agnostic of the process of interest, ideally with no bias towards any prior distribution.
