The algorithms provide essential inputs for measurements of quark-flavor mixing and charge-parity violation. We validate and evaluate the performance of the algorithms using hadronic B decays with flavor-specific final states reconstructed in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 62.8 fb(-1), collected at the gamma(4S) resonance with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We measure the total effective tagging efficiency to be epsilon(eff) = (30.0 +/- 1.2(stat) +/- 0.4(syst)){\%} for a category-based algorithm and epsilon(eff) = (28.8 +/- 1.2(stat) +/- 0.4(syst)){\%} for a deep-learning-based algorithm.", optnote="WOS:000777159100005", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5188), last updated on Thu, 30 Mar 2023 11:30:22 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10180-9", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.00790", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10180-9", language="English" }
