dc.descriptionThis document introduces basics in data preparation, feature selection and learning basics for high energy physics tasks. The emphasis is on feature selection by principal component analysis, information gain and significance measures for features. As examples for basic statistical learning algorithms, the maximum a posteriori and maximum likelihood classifiers are shown. Furthermore, a simple rule based classification as a means for automated cut finding is introduced. Finally two toolboxes for the application of statistical learning techniques are introduced.
