Description
The HEP Statistics Serialization Standard is a new format in which to
write, store, exchange and archive statistical models. It is based on
JSON and easily readable and writable for both machines and humans. It
is fully interoperable with ROOT workspaces, the current de-facto
standard in the experimental HEP community, and has a concept
implementation in Julia / BAT.jl and intends to be interoperable with
pyhf, zfit and any other large-scale, general-purpose statistical
modeling library used in HEP. It supports binned and unbinned datasets
and models, as well as a growing library of distributions and
auxiliary functions. It is bidirecionally convertible to ROOT
workspaces and pyhf JSON files.
While the standard is already in-use and implementations covering most
currently defined features exist, the development of the standard is
ongoing, and community feedback of any type is highly welcome.
