STAR HardProbes PWG

[Nihar Sahoo <nihar AT rcf.rhic.bnl.gov>]

Hello Jace,

I see your this email again in hp-pwg mailing list. So I am sending my 
comments again in this thread for a record. Note that Sooraj/Barbara may 
help you for setting for Drupal submission for this abstract.


Thank you for posting this abstract.
If you could present at the upcoming hp-pwg, that would be good.

Please find my suggestions on your nice abstract.

_ In this abstract, I think you don't need to mention about "trigger".  
Just "detection" is OK. Becasuse you are not studying any object, like 
jet or hadrons, triggering from gamma and pi0. You are just studying how 
to discriminate direct photon and pi0.

_ Title: "Discriminating Between Direct Photon and Neutral Pion Triggers 
… "->  "Direct photon and neutral pion discrimination using machine 
learning technique at STAR"

_ "...& the STAR Collaboration" -> (for the STAR collaboration)

_ Direct photon and neutral pion triggers indicate different kinematics 
in an event. -> Not clear. Please rephrase this.

_ Discrimination between direct photon and neutral pion triggers … -> 
Detection of direct photon and neutral pion coincidence with their 
recoil jet population is important to study the QCD process in 
proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions. [Make it generic physics 
motivation]

_ Machine learning techniques have been introduced as a useful tool to 
classify ….using transverse shower profile and other trigger particle 
information.
-> "In this study, the TMultiLayerPerceptron class, a machine learning 
technique in the ROOT package, is utilized to discriminate the direct 
photon and neutral pions samples using the transverse shower profile 
method in the STAR experiment."  [Concise these two sentences]

_ "…will be documented throughout this study." -> "…will be discussed in 
this presentation."


Cheers
Nihar
