Class Acts::AdaptiveGridTrackDensity

template<int trkGridSize = 15>
class Acts::AdaptiveGridTrackDensity

Implements a 1-dim density grid to be filled with track Gaussian distributions.

Each single track is modelled as a 2-dim Gaussian distribution grid in the d0-z0 plane, but only the overlap with the z-axis (i.e. a 1-dim density vector) needs to be calculated. The position of the highest track density (of either a single bin or the sum of a certain region) can be determined. Single tracks can be cached and removed from the overall density. Unlike the GaussianGridTrackDensity, the overall density vector grows adaptively with the tracks densities being added to the grid.

tparam trkGridSize

The 2-dim grid size of a single track, i.e. a single track is modelled as a (trkGridSize x trkGridSize) grid in the d0-z0 plane. Note: trkGridSize has to be an odd value.

Public Types

using TrackGridVector = Eigen::Matrix<float, trkGridSize, 1>

Public Functions

inline AdaptiveGridTrackDensity(const Config &cfg)
std::pair<int, TrackGridVector> addTrack(const BoundTrackParameters &trk, std::vector<float> &mainGridDensity, std::vector<int> &mainGridZValues) const

Adds a single track to the overall grid density.

Parameters
  • trk – The track to be added

  • mainGridDensity – The main 1-dim density grid along the z-axis

  • mainGridZValues – The corresponding z-bin values of the track densities along the z-axis

Returns

A pair storing information about the z-bin position the track was added (int) and the 1-dim density contribution of the track itself

Result<float> getMaxZPosition(std::vector<float> &mainGridDensity, const std::vector<int> &mainGridZValues) const

Returns the z position of maximum track density.

Parameters
  • mainGridDensity – The main 1-dim density grid along the z-axis

  • mainGridZValues – The corresponding z-bin values of the track densities along the z-axis

Returns

The z position of maximum track density

Result<std::pair<float, float>> getMaxZPositionAndWidth(std::vector<float> &mainGridDensity, const std::vector<int> &mainGridZValues) const

Returns the z position of maximum track density and the estimated width.

Parameters
  • mainGridDensity – The main 1-dim density grid along the z-axis

  • mainGridZValues – The corresponding z-bin values of the track densities along the z-axis

Returns

The z position of maximum track density and width

void removeTrackGridFromMainGrid(int zBin, const TrackGridVector &trkGrid, std::vector<float> &mainGridDensity, const std::vector<int> &mainGridZValues) const

Removes a track from the overall grid density.

Parameters
  • zBin – The center z-bin position the track needs to be removed from

  • trkGrid – The 1-dim density contribution of the track

  • mainGridDensity – The main 1-dim density grid along the z-axis

  • mainGridZValues – The corresponding z-bin values of the track densities along the z-axis
