Track reconstruction, primary vertex finding and seed generation with the Pixel Detector

The Pixel Detector is the innermost detector of the tracking system of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment. It provides the most precise measurements which contribute to the full track reconstruction. It also allows standalone track reconstruction, which is particularly useful for online event selection (called High-Level Triggering). The reconstruction algorithms using the Pixel Detector are presented, including pixel track reconstruction, primary vertex finding and seed generation.
