RooPlot

Line: 154 to 150
  Bayes' theorem holds that the probability of b given a is related to the probability of a given b. Normally, one might say that the mean of a Gaussian is 1 and that then gives a distribution for x. However, if one had a dataset for x, one might want to know the posterior for the mean. The RooFit ability to switch what the probability density function is of is very useful for Bayesian stuff. Because RooFit allows this composition, the thing that acts as x in the Gaussian could actually be a function of, say, x^2. A Jacobian factor is picked up in going from x to x^2, so the normalisation no longer makes sense. Sometimes RooFit can figure out what the Jacobian factor should be and sometimes it resorts to numerical integration.

Fitting

Fitting a model to data

Changed:
<
<
Fitting a model to data can be done in many ways. The most common methods are the χ2 fit and the -log(L) fit. The default fitting method in ROOT is the χ2 method, while the default method in RooFit is the -log(L) method. The -log(L) method is often preferred because it is more robust for low statistics fits and because it can also be performed on unbinned data.

The RooFit workspace

Line: 280 to 270
  One might create a Gaussian PDF and then import it into a workspace. All of the dependencies of the Gaussian shall be drawn in and owned by the workspace. There are no nightmarish ownership problems. Alternatively, one might create simply the Gaussian inside the workspace using the "Workspace Factory".

RooStats

Line: 426 to 411
  The main goal is to standardise the interface for major statistical procedures so that they can work on an arbitrary RooFit model and dataset and handle any parameters of interest and nuisance parameters. Another goal is to implement most accepted techniques from frequentist, Bayesian and likelihood based approaches. A further goal is to provide utilities to perform combined measurements.

ModelConfig

Changed:

The ModelConfig RooStats class encapsulates the configuration of a model to define a particular hypothesis. It is now used extensively by the calculator tools. ModelConfig always contains a reference to an external workspace that manages all of the objects that are a part of the model (PDFs and parameter sets). So, in order to use ModelConfig, the user must specify a workspace pointer before creating the various objects of the model.

XML files

Line: 543 to 525
  There are several parts in the top-level XML file. Initially, the XML schema is specified. The output is specified next. Specifically, the prefix for any output files (ROOT files containing workspaces) is given. Now, the channel XML files are given for each measurement (e.g., signal, background, systematics information) using the Input tag. Next, the details for each channel are defined using the Measurement tag. Which bins to use are specified inclusively using the Measurement tag attributes BinLow and BinHigh. Within the Measurement tag, the POI tag is used to specify the point of interest for the channel, i.e. the test statistic.
