Abstract
Method of robust fitting with rough center guidance is developed for the RICH1 Cherenkov ring recognition.
CBM RICH ring recognition
The first attempt to simulate CBM RICH1 data
has been made without taking into account the RICH geometry, signal amplitude information and ring center guidance like it has been done for RICH real data of the CERES/NA-45 experiment at CERN.
CERES RICH1 event (see NIM A394 (1997)
pp 225-231)
Two rings from this event extracted by center guidance
CBM RICH1 data were simulated in G4CBM framework(IHEP Protvino), without information aboutsignal amplitudes and center guidance.
As one can clearly see, the latter is needed especially because of the high density of rings in the central area.

Therefore we continue the development of ring recognition algorithms on the local data models simulating signal amplitudes and combined data contaminationby neighboring rings and randomly distributed noise signals.
One example of 3D ring imageMC radius is 10 (in pad size), amplitude range is

Circle fitting by padsOn the first stage we neglected the pad amplitudes andstarted considering pad centers as points: (xi,yi), i=1,2,...n to be fit to a circle (R,a,b). Minimized functional L(R,a,b) = Σwi ei

Due to nonlinearity of L(R,a,b) we use, first, the MINUIT program with our robust addition as a benchmark for the next comparison with our faster circle fitting algorithms. As initial parameter values we used either result of the zero iteration with wiΞ1 or centers of gravity (CoG) of all points, as (a(0),b(0)), and average distance of them to CoG, as R(0).
Some preliminary accuracy results are presented on the next slide (in pad size units) for Δa=aMC-aCal; Δb=bMC-bCal ; ΔR=RMC-RCal, where MC and Cal denote Monte-Carlo values and their corresponding estimations calculated on 1000 events.

Concluding remarks Robust algorithms of fast ring finding have been elaborated. With the present local model we are going to complete our algorithm of the fast robust ring fit and to calculate its efficiency versuscontamination ratio.
For further development of the algorithms (in particular, for moreaccurate consideration of rings' intersections) data of G4CBM simulations including signal amplitudes and ring center guidance are necessary.
A problem of recognition and fit of splintered rings correspondingto cases when incoming particle passes between two RICH1 mirrorshas been considered. That will require more sophisticated algorithm includinga possibility to fit a non-complete ring by its partial arch.
