.SH NAME
hist2workspace \- utility to create RooFit/RooStats workspace from histograms
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B hist2workspace [option] input.xml
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B hist2workspace
is a utility to create RooFit/RooStats workspace from histograms
.SH OPTIONS
.B -standard_form
default model, which creates an extended PDF that interpolates between RooHistFuncs. This is much faster for models with many bins and uses significantly less memory.
.br
.B -number_counting_form
this was the original model in 5.28 (without patches). It uses a Poisson for each bin of the histogram. This can become slow and memory intensive when there are many bins.
.br
.br
.SH Prepare working area
The ROOT release ships with a script
.B prepareHistFactory
in the $ROOTSYS/bin directory that prepares a working area.
It creates a results/, data/, and config/ directory.
It also copies the HistFactorySchema.dtd and example XML files into
the config/ directory. Additionally, it copies a root file into the data/
directory for use with the examples.
.br
.SH HistFactorySchema.dtd
This file is located in $ROOTSYS/etc/ specifies the XML schema.
It is typically placed in the config/ directory of a working area
together with the top-level XML file and the individual channel XML files.
The user should not modify this file.
.br
The HistFactorySchema.dtd is commented to specify exactly the meaning of
the various options.
.SH Top-Level XML File
(see for example $ROOTSYS/tutorials/histfactory/example.xml)
This file is edited by the user. It specifies
- A top level 'Combination' that is composed of:
- several 'Channels', which are described in separate XML files.
- several 'Measurements' (corresponding to a full fit of the model) each of which specifies
- a name for this measurement to be used in tables and files
- what is the luminosity associated to the measurement in picobarns
- which bins of the histogram should be used
- what is the relative uncertainty on the luminosity
- what is (are) the parameter(s) of interest that will be measured
- which parameters should be fixed/floating (eg. nuisance parameters)
- which type of constriants are desired
- Gaussian by default
- Gamma, LogNormal, and Uniform are also supported
- if the tool should export the model only and skip the default fit
.br
.SH Channel XML Files
(see for example $ROOTSYS/tutorials/histfactory/example_channel.xml)
This file is edited by the user. It specifies for each channel
- observed data
- if absent the tool will use the expectation, which is useful for expected sensitivity
- several 'Samples' (eg. signal, bkg1, bkg2, ...), each of which has:
- a name
- if the sample is normalized by theory (eg N = L*sigma) or not (eg. data driven)
- a nominal expectation histogram
- a named 'Normalization Factor' (which can be fixed or allowed to float in a fit)
- several 'Overall Systematics' in normalization with:
- a name
- +/- 1 sigma variations (eg. 1.05 and 0.95 for a 5% uncertainty)
- several 'Histogram Systematics' in shape with:
- a name (which can be shared with the OverallSyst if correlated)
- +/- 1 sigma variational histograms
