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 [InlineMediaObject not available: see fulltext.] decays with flavor-specific final states reconstructed in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 62.8 fb- 1, collected at the [InlineEquation not available: see fulltext.] resonance with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We measure the total effective tagging efficiency to be εeff=(30.0±1.2(stat)±0.4(syst))%for a category-based algorithm and εeff=(28.8±1.2(stat)±0.4(syst))%for a deep-learning-based algorithm.29 page(s)application/pdfenIn CopyrightB-flavor tagging at Belle IIArticle - RefereedEuropean Physical Journal Chttps://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10180-9824Piilonen, Leo [0000-0001-6836-0748]1434-6052
