PROFILE
Derek M Anderson
Derek Anderson contributed to the eic/EICrecon repository by developing and refactoring core algorithms for calorimetry and event reconstruction. He enhanced ImagingClusterReco to support multiple MC-cluster associations and introduced energy-weighted matching, improving traceability and analysis reproducibility. Derek modularized cluster shape parameter calculations by extracting logic into a dedicated CalorimeterClusterShape algorithm, increasing maintainability and testability. He addressed data integrity in calorimeter hit merging, ensuring reliable raw-to-merged hit references for downstream analytics. Additionally, Derek resolved configuration and API exposure issues in ScatteredElectronsEMinusPz, reducing runtime errors. His work demonstrated depth in C++ development, algorithm design, configuration management, and data structure handling.
