ATLAS E-M Calorimeter Resolution and Neural Network Based Particle Classification
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ATLAS detector is being built in CERN at the LHC. It is a general purpose detector that will be used for a variety of experiments, such as searching for the Higgs Boson. The electromagnetic calorimeter is a component of ATLAS responsible for measuring the energy deposited by e, e−, and γ. This paper presents a study of the resolution of the E-M calorimeter using data simulated by GEANT 4. Also included is a study in the use of Neural Networks to classify particles, specifically e−/π±, using data from the E-M calorimeter.

Optimized Calorimeter Signal Compaction for an Independent Component based ATLAS Electron/Jet Second-Level Trigger
The ATLAS online trigger system has three filtering levels and relies very much on calorimeter information, which is segmented into seven detection layers. Due to differences both in depth and cell granularity of these layers, trigger algorithms may benefit from performing feature extraction at the layer level. This work addresses electron/jet separation at the second level (LVL2) filtering res...

The porosity within a reservoir rock is a basic parameter for the reservoir characterization. The present paper introduces two intelligent models for identification of the porosity types using image analysis. For this aim, firstly, thirteen geometrical parameters of pores of each image were extracted using the image analysis techniques. The extracted features and their corresponding pore types ...
متن کاملIdentification of Houseplants Using Neuro-vision Based Multi-stage Classification System
In this paper, we present a machine vision system that was developed on the basis of neural networks to identify twelve houseplants. Image processing system was used to extract 41 features of color, texture and shape from the images taken from front and back of the leaves. The features were fed into the neural network system as the recognition criteria and inputs. Multilayer perceptron (MLP) ne...
