Sumario:The performance of the newly developed DeepTau algorithm for the discrimination of taus against jets, electrons, and muons is summarized. The algorithm exploits recent deep neural network multi-classification methods. It outperforms previous discrimination methods significantly in the sense of miss-identification probability of jets, electrons, or muons as taus for given tau identification probability. The agreement of the simulation with the data is good and residual differences are well understood.
