Present: Dustin, Jean-Roch, Josh, Mayur, Paolo, Steve,
Steve presented his hit predictors, showing results for 1D and 2D layers.
December Milestone: produce our first simulated tracks dataset
Conference contributions (poster, potentially paper):
Connecting the Dots/Intelligent Detector - LAL Mar 2017 (all plenary workshop)
Deadline Dec 9 → Paolo contact DR to understand whether we need to submit abstract
International conference of learning representations - ICLR, April 2017
Deadline for submissions to workshops late Jan ?
International conference of machine learning - icml 2017
Deadline for submissions Feb 5
Pietro → introduce group activities
Maria: I want to try to put all the agendas and the links and the minutes in a Basecamp : do you people use Basecamp? Pietro Shall we try? Others?
PC: Indico+google seems to work but I am open to evaluate basecamp
Data Storage: JBK
Paolo: add acknowledgment of PCKF on HEP.TrkX web page https://heptrkx.github.io DONE
Computing platform:
NERSC ERCAP allocation: Lali said we can start when we want
PC submitted NERSC ERCAP request for 1.2M hours 5+5 TB storage
CalTech GPU servers. Jean-Roch contact person if you need access.
Paolo: found double (and triple!) hits in generated dataset. Will provide some python code to merge them upon reading. Test files, and a conversion script, uploaded to our google drive.
Mayur: single track 3D “Kalman Filter”
Reading ACTS tracks in cylindrical coords. Generally works but prediction does not appear get closer to data with the layers. Next steps:
Next Meeting Monday Dec 12
