Abstract

An observation of Higgs boson production in association with a top quark pair (

$\mathrm{t \bar{t} H}$ ) is a key outstanding measurement of the LHC programme. Boosted Decision Trees are vital for the search of

$\mathrm{t \bar{t} H}$ , playing a role in event reconstruction and discriminating signal from a large background. The use of BDTs in the ATLAS search for

$\mathrm{t \bar{t} H}$ ,

$\mathrm{H\rightarrow b\bar{b}}$ is presented for the preliminary results on the

$\sqrt{s}=$ ~13~TeV,

$13.2~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ dataset.
