A Gaussian-Sum Filter for Vertex Reconstruction

A vertex reconstruction algorithm was developed based on the Gaussian-sum Filter and implemented in the framework of the CMS reconstruction program. While linear least-square estimators are optimal in case all observation errors are Gaussian distributed, a GSF offers a better treatment of non-Gaussi...

description A vertex reconstruction algorithm was developed based on the Gaussian-sum Filter and implemented in the framework of the CMS reconstruction program. While linear least-square estimators are optimal in case all observation errors are Gaussian distributed, a GSF offers a better treatment of non-Gaussian distributions of track parameter errors when these are modeled by Gaussian mixtures. Results are compared to the Kalman filter.
