A neural network based online event selection is being developed for the COMET (COherent Muon To Electron Transition) Phase-I experiment. This experiment employs the world’s highest intensity muon beam and a detector system comprising a drift chamber and a trigger hodoscope. Such a highintensity muon beam would generate significant backgrounds, leading to high trigger rates. Thus, we are developing a machine learning-based online classification algorithm on FPGA, that utilizes information from both the drift chamber and the trigger hodoscope. The neural network is constructed using COMET Phase-I Monte Carlo simulation data and will be implemented on an FPGA board developed for COMET Phase-I. We are investigating the classification performance and latency of this algorithm. We plan to present its expected trigger efficiency and contribution to the experimental sensitivity.
