MVA-based event reconstruction techniques are used to identify final states where the Higgs boson decays to either a W, Z or tau pair by selecting events with two isolated same-sign leptons, and b-jets. The observed best-fit \ th signal strength is 1.7<sup>+0.6</sup><sub>-0.5</sub> times the Standard Model prediction, corresponding to a significance of 3.3 standard deviations above the background-only hypothesis. cache/w3763488600.txt txt/w3763488600.txt
