Recently, it has been shown to modify the area-law scaling of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, giving rise to deformed Friedmann equations within Jacobson's approach. The ensuing model incorporates the GUP correction as a quintessence-like dark energy that supplements the cosmological constant, influencing the dynamics of the early Universe while aligning with the ΛCDM paradigm in the current epoch. In this extended scenario, we examine the growth of matter perturbations and structure formation employing the Top-Hat Spherical Collapse approach. Our analysis reveals that the profile of the density contrast is sensitive to the GUP parameter <em>β</em>, resulting in a slower gravitational evolution of primordial fluctuations in the matter density.

We provide parametric estimates of the improvement from flavor tagging with any set of measured observables and demonstrate this in practice on simulated data using a Graph Neural Network (GNN).
