Description
In this contribution, I will give a brief overview of the most common methodologies currently used to extract collinear distributions from experimental data. I will mainly focus on unpolarised parton distribution functions (PDFs), touching upon perturbative ingredients, parameterisations, and data sets. I will also mention recent developments in longitudinally polarised (helicity) PDFs and, if time allows, unpolarised fragmentation functions.
