18 Enter: Boosted Decision Trees (BDTs) MC Data MC Events BDTs are an advanced (complicated) method of separation, that learns to distinguish between signal and background events BDTs need to be taught to separate signal and background trained on MC events James Barber p.11/19

20 Enter: Boosted Decision Trees (BDTs) MC Data Root Node MC Events BDTs are an advanced (complicated) method of separation, that learns to distinguish between signal and background events BDTs need to be taught to separate signal and background trained on MC events Train on an event sample representative of the data range All training events form the root node of a BDT James Barber p.11/19
21 How a Decision Tree works B 4/37 S 7/1 S/B 52/48 < PMT Hits? S/B 9/10 S/B 48/11 < 0.2 GeV 0.2 GeV Energy? < 500 cm 500 cm Radius? B 2/9 Root Node S 39/1 Start with some number of Monte Carlo events in a root node James Barber p.12/19

B 2/9 S 39/1 Start with some number of Monte Carlo events in a root node Pick a variable/value combination to separate the events If node has > specified purity, or < specified number of events, stop separating James Barber p.12/19
23 How a Decision Tree works B 4/37 S 7/1 S/B 52/48 < PMT Hits? S/B 9/10 S/B 48/11 < 0.2 GeV 0.2 GeV Energy? < 500 cm 500 cm Radius? B 2/9 S 39/1 Start with some number of Monte Carlo events in a root node Pick a variable/value combination to separate the events If node has > specified purity, or < specified number of events, stop separating Otherwise, continue separation Leaf nodes are classified as Signal or Background James Barber p.12/19
24 How a BDT works B 4/37 S 7/1 S/B 52/48 < PMT Hits? S/B 9/10 S/B 48/11 < 0.2 GeV 0.2 GeV Energy? < 500 cm 500 cm Radius? B 2/9 S 39/1 Missclassified events are given boosted weights A new root node is made, and a new tree generated 500 or 1000 trees made in this way, with boosting after each classification A BDT learns from its mistakes! James Barber p.13/19
25 Testing a forest of BDTs MC Data Testing Data MC Events Testing Events All events not used for training are used for testing These events are run through every tree we created in training Every time an event is classified as signal, it gets Nsignal incremented Calculate a likelihood, l l = N signal Ntrees Background tends towards 0, signal tends towards 1 Plot likelihood to see separation James Barber p.14/19
26 Likelihood Values Signal and Background Separation 500 Signal BBbar Continuum James Barber p.15/19
27 Determining separation quality Calculate a Figure of Merit, Q Q = S S+B +C S: sum of signal events selected B = B (1 + f B error ) C = 1 f C B: sum of B B background events selected C: sum of continuum events selected f: on peak percentage (.9) B error : accounts for uncertainty in exact amount of B B background in data James Barber p.16/19
28 Determining separation quality Efficiencies signal BBbar background continuum EGammaStar(GeV) Calculate efficiency separation take total events kept by selection algorithm divide by total starting events James Barber p.16/19
29 What I did Get this all working! Find parameter configuration which gives the maximum Figure of Merit, Q Some parameters tested + results (749,683 total events) Training events: 350,000 Trees: 1,000 MinEvents/node: 50 Cuts: 50 Q = Training events: 350,000 Trees: 500 MinEvents/node: 50 Cuts: 50 Q = Training events: 100,000 Trees: 1000 MinEvents/node: 50 Cuts: 50 Q = Training events: 100,000 Trees: 1000 MinEvents/node: 100 Cuts: 50 Q = James Barber p.17/19
30 And the winner is.. Training events : 100,000 Trees: 1,000 MinEvents/node: 50 Cuts: 100 Q = Signal and Background Separation 500 Signal BBbar Continuum James Barber p.18/19
31 Conclusion Better signal and background separation reduces uncertanties Important to make precision measurements Increase the sensitivity for new physics Possible to have a previously unseen heavy particle in penguin loop H? James Barber p.19/19
