Abstract
-clustering structure is a significant topic in light nuclei. A Bayesian convolutional neural network (BCNN) is applied to classify initial nonclustered and clustered configurations, namely Woods-Saxon distribution and three- triangular (four- tetrahedral) structure for , from heavy-ion collision events generated within a multiphase transport (AMPT) model. Azimuthal angle and transverse momentum distributions of charged pions are taken as inputs to train the classifier. On a multiple-event basis, the overall classification accuracy can reach for events at . With proper constructions of samples, the predicted deviations on mixed samples with different proportions of both configurations could be within . In addition, setting a simple confidence threshold can further improve the predictions on the mixed dataset. Our results indicate promising and extensive possibilities of application of machine-learning-based techniques to real data and some other problems in physics of heavy-ion collisions.
