In this appendix, the plots of the distributions of the input variables used for the training of the ANN in the three considered signal regions, Figs.B.1 to B.12. As a recap, the used variables are listed in Table B.1. The plots show pre-fit distributions, normalised overlayed plots for signal and background to evaluate their separation, and finally the post-fit distributions. The latter show a good agreement between data and prediction a part of some statistical fluctuations.
