  3. Scenario • The ATLAS trigger system comprises three distinct levels of event selection: LVL1, LVL2 and Event Filter. • From an initial bunch crossing rate of 40 MHz, the trigger system will select events up to 100 Hz for permanent storage. • LVL1 operates at 40 MHz with reduced granularity information in order to take a fast decision. It also defines Regions of Interest (RoI) that will guide the LVL2 selection process. • At LVL2 complex algorithms operate over full granularity information, with a maximum latency of 10 ms. • The three levels of selection use information provided by the calorimeter system due to its fast response and the detailed energy deposition profiles it provides. The ATLAS trigger system.

  4. Calorimeter system • The ALTAS calorimeter is very segmented and presents high granularity. • The proposed system should address 11 subdetectors layers of the electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters: • Pre-sampler, barrel • EM Calo, barrel, front layer • EM Calo, barrel, middle layer • EM Calo, barrel, back layer • Pre-sampler, endcap • EM Calo, endcap, front layer • EM Calo, endcap, middle layer • EM Calo, endcap, back layer • Hadronic Calo, barrel, layer 0 • Hadronic Calo, barrel, layer 1 • Hadronic Calo, barrel, layer 3 Cross section of the EM Calorimeter.

  5. Electromagnetic Calorimeter Principal component extraction Neural classifier Data assembling electron / jet decision Hadronic Calorimeter high dimension low dimension Signal processing • The proposed signal processing approach will operate at Level 2, on calorimeter data, in order to: • Reduce the high computational load due to the high granularity of the information; • Speed up the selection process; • Achieve higher particle identification efficiency (main focus on electrons/jets channel). • Proposed techniques: • Segmented principal component analysis in order to explore the highly segmented calorimeter system, data representation is made at the layer level instead of global random process representation. • Neural networks for particle identification  projected data will be concatenated and fed into a feedforward neural network for electron/jet discrimination.

  6. Data assembling • Simulated LVL2 data produced in the Athena environment were used. They correspond to jets and two signatures of the Higgs boson in the following decays: H2e-2µ and H4e-. • Two types of data assembling were tested: direct and ring. • Direct assembling each data vector is organized group cells in the way they appear in the RoI layer. • Ring assembling  for each calorimeter layer, the cell with the highest deposited energy is identified, and the data vector is formed by sequentially grouping rings of cells around this marked cell. This type of assembling puts in evidence the energy deposition pattern of the incident particle, which is an important feature that makes further classification easier to achieve. 1 25 2 2 Principal component extraction 1 24 25 5 x 5 RoI (cell #1 has the highest deposited energy) data vector

  7. Data compaction • Due to the high complexity of the calorimeter system, raw random vectors have up to 3115 components (calorimeter cells). • The following table illustrates the level of compaction achieved for each subdetector layer, for different levels of random process energy preservation.

EM Calo – barrel – front layer EM Calo – barrel – front layer ring assembling Variance (%) Variance (%) ring assembling original dimension = 800 direct assembling original dimension = 800 Principal Component Principal Component Data compaction • The following figures illustrate how much we gain with ring data assembling. It is point out ring data assembling allows higher levels of compaction, as expected, since data vectors are organized according to the energy deposition pattern. For ring data assembling 11 components preserve 90 % of the energy.

  9. Segmented PCA extraction Pre-sampler, barrel EM Calo, barrel, front layer Hadronic Calo, barrel, layer 2 Data projection Information concatenation electron / jet decision Particle identification • Particle identification is performed by a simple three layer feedforward neural network. All neurons have hyperbolic tangent as activation function. • The input layer receives the calorimeter data projections, concatenated as a single input vector.

  10. Particle identification • Network training was realized with the Resilient Backpropagation (RPROP) algorithm. • This training algorithm eliminates the harmful effects of the magnitudes of the partial derivatives. Only the sign of the derivative is used to determine the direction of the weight update. • First runs of training were realized by splitting randomly the complete data set available (24068 electrons and 2066 jets) into two data sets with the same size: training and testing. • A training step comprised a random selection of a electron/jet pair in order to avoid overtraining on electrons due to the different statistics. • Preliminary results: 90 % efficiency.

  11. Conclusions • The segmented PCA is a very attractive signal processing approach to the calorimeter information at ATLAS. The reasons are the high segmentation of the subdetectors and their high granularity. • Ring data assembling, following the energy deposition pattern, achieved considerably higher levels of compaction than the simple organized group cells of each RoI. Results demonstrate that a compaction level of more than 96 % is achieved if 90 % of the energy is preserved. • Another possible approach under study is the use of ring sums for data assembling, also making the energy deposition pattern clear. • The relevance of the principal components will be also investigated in order to verify the importance of each component to the neural classifier.
