Member Enumeration Documentation

enum Acclaim::CutOptimizer::BranchType

protected

Add to a list of extra tree for which you wish to calculate the MVA score

Parameters

treeName	is the name of the tree to create
glob	is the wildcard filenames for the ROOT files containing AnitaEventSummary trees (named sunTree)
spectatorSelection	is a vector of TCut variables used to choose the spectators

Returns

the number of spectator trees to be prepared

Definition at line 65 of file CutOptimizer.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Acclaim::CutOptimizer::CutOptimizer	(	const char *	signalGlob,
		const char *	backgroundGlob = NULL
	)

Constructor

Parameters

summaryFileGlob,a	glob expression for getting files containing trees of AnitaEventSummary
save_trees	is a boolian which determines whether or not the intermediate TTrees fed into TMVA.

Member Function Documentation

TString Acclaim::CutOptimizer::branchifyName ( const char *  formStr )

static

**

TChain can only notify one object when the underlying tree changes. The point of this class is to inherit from TObject and overload Notify(), then pass that on to all the TFormulas I'm interested in.

Returns

always returns true. Destructor: Delete all the contained TFormula and unset the TChain Notification Creates a TFormula object, and put it in the vector

Parameters

formulaStr

is the string from which to generate the formula

Returns

the number of contained TFormula Remove function/object like things from the formula string but make a recognisable branch name

Parameters

formStr

is the c-string string containig the fromula

Returns

the branch name

Definition at line 428 of file CutOptimizer.cxx.

TFile * Acclaim::CutOptimizer::makeOutputFile ( const char *  outFileName )

protected

Generate the output file

Parameters

outFileName

name to give the file

Returns

pointer to the newly created TFile
