Description

A track reconstruction program CATS based on a cellular automaton has been developed for the vertex detector system of the HERA-B experiment at DESY. A segment model of the cellular automaton used for tracking can be regarded as local discrete form of the Denby-Peterson neural net. Since 1999 CATS has been used to reconstruct data collected in HERA-B. Results on the tracking performance, an accuracy of estimates and computing time are presented
