Recent top quark event modelling studies done using CMS proton-proton data collected at a centre of mass energies of 8 and 13 TeV and state-of-the-art theoretical predictions accurate to next-to-leading order QCD interfaced with PYTHIA and HERWIG event generators are summarised.
The particle-level top quark (pseudo-top), underlying event measurement in top quark pair events and parton shower tuning using top quark pair events are discussed.
