Phys. Commun. PY 2021 BP 107713 EP 5pp VL 260 DI 10.1016/j.cpc.2020.107713 LA English DE Track reconstruction; Pattern Recognition; LHCb AB We describe the Hybrid seeding, a stand-alone pattern recognition algorithm aiming at finding charged particle trajectories for the LHCb upgrade. A significant improvement to the charged particle reconstruction efficiency is accomplished by exploiting the knowledge of the LHCb magnetic field and the position of energy deposits in the scintillating fibre tracker detector. Moreover, we achieve a low fake rate and a small contribution to the overall timing budget of the LHCb real-time data processing. ER
