And you think we did not try linear regressions? This is what we used to do 20 years ago. Then we gained two orders of magnitude in signal-to-background discrimination. And since our data are not even images, off-shelf solutions mostly don’t apply. Try to process40 MHz of incoming collisions (1 MB each) within 100 nsec with a linear regression of point-cloud data. When you are done trying, try to think that maybe (maybe…) life is not as easy as bread&butter. If you succeed, come and knock at CERN’s door. Maybe we will let you in…
