Fast reconstruction-based ROI triggering via anomaly detection in the CYGNO optical TPC
- 基于基线图像训练卷积自编码器,无监督学习探测器噪声特征。
- 保留93.0%信号强度的同时剔除97.8%图像区域,单帧推理仅需25毫秒。
- 无需仿真与标注,适合在线数据压缩,对探测器类型不敏感。
光学读出时间投影室(TPC)生成兆像素级图像,其精细拓扑信息对稀有事例搜索至关重要,但数据量大难以实现实时选区。本文提出一种无监督、基于重建的异常检测策略,直接在最少预处理的相机帧上运行。通过仅使用基线图像训练的卷积自编码器,学习探测器噪声形态,无需标签、仿真或精细校准。应用于标准数据采集帧时,局部重建残差可识别粒子诱发的结构,再通过阈值化与空间聚类提取紧凑的感兴趣区域(ROI)。利用CYGNO光学TPC原型的真实数据,比较了两种仅在训练目标上不同的自编码器配置,实现了可控对比研究。最佳配置在保留(93.0 ± 0.2)%重构信号强度的同时,剔除(97.8 ± 0.1)%图像面积,单帧推理时间约为25毫秒(消费级GPU)。结果表明,训练目标设计对重建式异常检测效果至关重要,且基线训练自编码器为光学TPC在线数据压缩提供了透明、探测器无关的基准方案。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Optical-readout Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) produce megapixel-scale images whose fine-grained topological information is essential for rare-event searches, but whose size challenges real-time data selection. We present an unsupervised, reconstruction-based anomaly-detection strategy for fast Region-of-Interest (ROI) extraction that operates directly on minimally processed camera frames. A convolutional autoencoder trained exclusively on pedestal images learns the detector noise morphology without labels, simulation, or fine-grained calibration. Applied to standard data-taking frames, localized reconstruction residuals identify particle-induced structures, from which compact ROIs are extracted via thresholding and spatial clustering. Using real data from the CYGNO optical TPC prototype, we compare two pedestal-trained autoencoder configurations that differ only in their training objective, enabling a controlled study of its impact. The best configuration retains (93.0 +/- 0.2)% of reconstructed signal intensity while discarding (97.8 +/- 0.1)% of the image area, with an inference time of approximately 25 ms per frame on a consumer GPU. The results demonstrate that careful design of the training objective is critical for effective reconstruction-based anomaly detection and that pedestal-trained autoencoders provide a transparent and detector-agnostic baseline for online data reduction in optical TPCs.
