abstract = {A tau lepton identification algorithm, DeepTau, based on
convolutional neural network techniques, has been developed
in the CMS experiment to discriminate reconstructed hadronic
decays of tau leptons ($τ_\mathrm{h}$) from quark or gluon
jets and electrons and muons that are misreconstructed as
$τ_\mathrm{h}$ candidates. The latest version of this
algorithm, v2.5, includes domain adaptation by
backpropagation, a technique that reduces discrepancies
between collision data and simulation in the region with the
highest purity of genuine $τ_\mathrm{h}$ candidates.
Additionally, a refined training workflow improves
classification performance with respect to the previous
version of the algorithm, with a reduction of 30$-$50\% in
the probability for quark and gluon jets to be misidentified
as $τ_\mathrm{h}$ candidates for given reconstruction and
identification efficiencies. This paper presents the novel
improvements introduced in the DeepTau algorithm and
evaluates its performance in LHC proton-proton collision
data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 and 13.6 TeV collected in 2018 and
2022 with integrated luminosities of 60 and 35 fb$^{-1}$,
respectively. Techniques to calibrate the performance of the
$τ_\mathrm{h}$ identification algorithm in simulation with
respect to its measured performance in real data are
presented, together with a subset of results among those
measured for use in CMS physics analyses.},
