The search is performed using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb(-1) of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. To maximize the separation of signal and background, a machine-learning classifier is used. No excess of events is observed beyond the Standard Model expectation. Using a doublet vector-like lepton model, vector-like leptons coupling to third-generation Standard Model leptons are excluded in the mass range from 130 GeV to 900 GeV at the 95% confidence level, while the highest excluded mass is expected to be 970 GeV. %K Beyond Standard Model %K Hadron-Hadron Scattering %K Tau Physics %R 10.1007/JHEP07(2023)118 %U https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.05441 %U https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP07(2023)118 %P 118-49pp
