Detailed Description

Findlet for finding intersections of sinosoidal curves in the 2D Hough space by iteratively calling fastInterceptFinder2d.

This is done 80 times for a subset of SVD sensors, one subset for each layer 6 sensor to reduce combinatorics in the Hough Space and to improve the purity of the found track candidates. The found track candidates are then clustered via a recursive search. Afterwards track candidates are formed and stored in the output vector.

fastInterceptFinder2d()

void fastInterceptFinder2d ( const std::vector< VXDHoughState * > &  hits, uint  xmin, uint  xmax, uint  ymin, uint  ymax, uint  currentRecursion  )

private

find intercepts in the 2D Hough Space by recursively calling itself until no hits are assinged to a given Hough Space cell, or until the maximum number of recursions (m_maxRecursionLevel) is reached

Parameters

hits	vector containing the hits that are used for track finding
xmin	minimum x-index of the sub-Hough Space in the current recursion step
xmax	maximum x-index of the sub-Hough Space in the current recursion step
ymin	minimum y-index of the sub-Hough Space in the current recursion step
ymax	maximum y-index of the sub-Hough Space in the current recursion step
currentRecursion	current recursion step, has to be < m_maxRecursionLevel

FindHoughSpaceCluster()

void FindHoughSpaceCluster ( )

private

Find Hough Space clusters.

Loop over all found sectors in m_SectorArray and then calls the DepthFirstSearch function to recursively find the clusters

Definition at line 297 of file MultiHoughSpaceFastInterceptFinder.cc.

layerFilter()

unsigned short layerFilter ( std::bitset< 8 > &  layer )

inlineprivate

layer filter, checks if at least hits from 3 layers are in a set of hits

Parameters

layer

bitset containing information whether there as a hit in a layer

Definition at line 66 of file MultiHoughSpaceFastInterceptFinder.h.

      {
        uint layercount = layer.count();
        return (layercount >= 3 ? layercount : 0);

Member Data Documentation

m_activeSectors

std::map<std::pair<uint, uint>, std::pair<int, std::vector<VXDHoughState*> >, paircompare> m_activeSectors

private

Map containing only active HS sectors, i.e.

those with hits from enough layers contained in them. The keys are the indices of the HS cell, and the custom sort function above is used to sort the content. The value is a pair consisting of the (negative) number of layers hit in a given cell, and a vector containing the hit information of all hits that are contained in this cell. During cluster finding the first value of the value-pair will be assigned the current cluster number.
