MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS METHODS IN PHYSICS

M. Wolter

In this article a review of multivariate methods based on statistical training is given. Several popular multivariate methods useful in high-energy physics analysis are discussed. Selected examples from current research in particle physics are discussed, both from the on-line trigger selection and from the off-line analysis. Also statistical training methods, not yet applied in particle physics, are presented and some new applications are suggested.
