Description

RHADAManTHUS is a consumer-level tool for the automated graphical representation and optimization of collider event statistics. A simple, compact, and powerful meta-language syntax facilitates the generation of sophisticated publication-quality plots based upon instructions supplied in a reusable card file. The weighted recombination and over-sampling of distinct or duplicative data channels is handled transparently. All event statistics computable by the companion package AEACuS (as well as arbitrary user-supplied functions thereof) may be leveraged as histogram keys, or as criteria for event selection. Individual histograms may likewise be merged and/or functionally transformed at the bin-by-bin level. Available features include log/linear valuation, variable width binning, left/right bin integration, bin normalization, and bin smoothing.
