    Software R&D Working Meeting Minutes

    2022-02-23

    Apologies: Erica, Placido, Andi

    Introduction

    Sofware working group did very well last year in dissemination: two seminar presentations and many conference papers. Please keep it up! It’s important for our fellows to get their work more widely known.

    Still time this week to submit a GSoC project via CERN/HSF.

    Faster Simulation

    Q. Adaption to new “geometries” is really different materials; what if you really had a new geometry, e.g., a new layer in an HGCAL? This changes the input data structure.
    A. The shower representation is layout independent - uses voxels that would then be independently mapped to “real” calo cells.

    Q. Why is the first dataset generated at the front face of the calorimeter and the second and third from the centre? Is their material in front that causes brehmstrahlung?
    A. No, there’s not material in front of the calorimeter, it’s simplified.

    Q. Classification metrics?
    A. Binary classifier to distigish fully simulated events from generated. Plus chi-squared on shower properties.

    There are minutes attached to this event. Show them.
