Abstract
This paper presents contributions to the mechanical-electronic design and testing of a multi-PMT (mPMT) vessel for the Hyper-Kamiokande (HK) experiment. Results of the computational and physical tests are satisfactory, pointing to potential areas for improvement. A regression study for reconstructing neutrino kinematic variables for the Intermediate Water Cherenkov Detector (IWCD) is also presented, using a ResNet-50 architecture; these findings help to improve neutrino precision detection methodologies.
