Deposits are clustered on a 1 mm &times; 1 mm transverse grid per layer, and cells below 10 keV are discarded. All detectors are described in DD4hep and simulated with Geant4 11.2.2 through the ddsim driver within the Key4hep stack.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li><strong>SimpleBox</strong> is a synthetic family of ten thousand box-shaped tungsten-silicon sampling calorimeters spanning sampling fraction, longitudinal segmentation and incident angle, with four million showers in total, plus a one hundred thousand shower subsample, a test set of eight held-out configurations, and a held-out in-range configuration for zero-shot evaluation.</li>\n\t<li><strong>LEMURS</strong> is a point cloud re-simulation of five realistic barrel electromagnetic calorimeters (FCCee-CLD, the Open Data Detector calorimeter, Par04-SiW, Par04-SciPb and the noble-liquid FCCee-ALLEGRO), extracted on a fine transverse grid rather than the cell-aggregated representation of the original release. The first four provide one million training showers each and form the realistic pre-training pool.&nbsp;FCCee-ALLEGRO is the transfer target, with a one hundred thousand shower fine-tuning dataset.
