A modular classification system based on neural networks, for the particle identification task in a physics experiment, is proposed. The system is oriented to prevent systematic classification errors that could occur analysing experimental data with different statistical feature distribution in respect of the expected ones.

Abstract
A modular classification system based on neural networks, for the particle identification task in a physics experiment, is proposed. The system is oriented to prevent systematic classification errors that could occur analysing experimental data with different statistical feature distribution in respect of the expected ones. The system has been investigated in the context of the positron/proton classification problem in a cosmic ray space experiment, where the physics detectors are faced by the critical flight conditions. Finally, the experimental results shows as an adaptive training based on the real data can improve the classification model of the system.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
