abstract
High-level triggering is a vital component in many modern particle physics experiments. This paper describes a modification to the standard boosted decision tree (BDT) classifier, the so-called "bonsai" BDT, that has the following important properties: it is more efficient than traditional cut-based approaches; it is robust against detector instabilities, and it is very fast. Thus, it is fit-for-purpose for the online running conditions faced by any large-scale data acquisition system.

First evidence for B_s^0 to phi eta-prime decay with relative branching ratio (3.56 ± 0.79 ± 0.18 ± 0.06) x 10^{-2} and absolute branching fraction (0.66 ± 0.15 ± 0.03 ± 0.02) x 10^{-6}.
LHCb observes 3.2 sigma evidence for B+ -> pi+ e+ e- with measured branching fraction (2.4 +0.9 -0.8 +0.4 -0.2) x 10^-8, consistent with Standard Model.
First measurement of A_FB and F_H in B+→π+μ+μ− decay is consistent with Standard Model predictions in both high- and low-mass dimuon regions.
R_K*0 is measured as 1.08^{+0.14}_{-0.12}(stat) ± 0.07(syst) for q² > 14 GeV²/c⁴ in B⁰ → K*⁰ ℓ⁺ℓ⁻ decays, consistent with the Standard Model.
LHCb reports branching fractions B(b→χ_c0,1,2 X) and B(b→η_c(2S)X)×B(η_c(2S)→φφ) plus the most precise η_c(1S) mass from φφ decays in 5.9 fb⁻¹ of data.
LHCb measures f_L^d = 0.600 and f_L^s = 0.159 for B to K* Kbar* decays and reports a ratio L of 4.92 that confirms 4.4 sigma discrepancy with theory.
