Enhanced GNN models for track reconstruction with ATLAS ITk

Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based algorithms have been shown to produce competitive physics performance for the reconstruction of tracks from charged particles (« tracking ») during the future high-luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC). Initial studies [1,2] of these algorithms were based on the dataset from the TrackML challenge [3], i.e. a simulated dataset created with a number of simplifying assumptions. The most recent studies are based on detailed simulations of the future ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) [4,5]. GNN-based algorithms now appear as competitive solutions for the future generation of charged particle track reconstruction algorithms which will have to be put into production for the HL-LHC.

We present in detail the architecture of the Message Passing Neural network (MPNN) model used to obtained these results. We focus on the limitations and on potential shortcomings of the present algorithms in specific regions of the detector. We present new approaches that are being explored to overcome these limitations, like heterogeneous versions of the MPNN model or the use of weights to obtain class ratio and/or graph topology region balance in the loss function. We discuss the interest of evolving the model towards a Graph Transformer-type architecture including attention mechanisms, and of adding topological or detector-geometry-oriented positional encodings to the current encodings of detector hits in euclidian space.
