In this work, two neural networks (deep neural networks (DNN) and graph neural networks (GNN)) are applied to distinguish proton and gamma in the LHAASOKM2A simulation data. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves are used to evaluate the quality of the model. Both KM2A-DNN and KM2A-GNN models give higher Area Under Curve (AUC) scores than the traditional baseline model.MultidisciplinaryIdentification of proton and gamma in LHAASO-KM2A simulation data with deep learning algorithmsConference PaperSCOPUS2-s2.0-8512397668518248039
