combine v8.1.0 for CMSSW_10_2_X on CC7
This release includes the latest developments made for the Higgs preliminary combination HIG-19-005
.
Improvements to the code include:
-
Options to speed up discrete minimisation (a6950ba). Enabled by including the option
--X-rtd MINIMIZER_freezeDisassociatedParams
, can now also include the following--X-rtd MINIMIZER_multiMin_hideConstants
: hide the constant terms in the likelihood when recreating the minimizer--X-rtd MINIMIZER_multiMin_maskConstraints
: hide the constraint terms during the discrete minimization process--X-rtd MINIMIZER_multiMin_maskChannels=<choice>
mask in the NLL the channels that are not needed:<choice> 1
: keeps unmasked all channels that are participating in the discrete minimization<choice> 2
: keeps unmasked only the channel whose index is being scanned at the moment (works only in multipleMinimize mode 0, makes discrete minimization faster)
-
Add option to completely skip discrete minimization (for DEBUG purposes only)
--X-rtd MINIMIZER_skipDiscreteIterations
(b3802ae) -
Added option in
text2workspace.py
:--just-check-physics-model
to test a physics model quickly without building the full workspace (f162ceb) -
Improved tool
test/scanScalefactorsFromWS.py
to allow producing scans of scale-factors from PhysicsModels using workspace directly. -
General improvements in memory management in workspace creation.
