Fits MC fractions to data histogram.

A la HMCMLL, see R. Barlow and C. Beeston, Comp. Phys. Comm. 77 (1993) 219-228, and http://www.hep.man.ac.uk/~roger/hfrac.f

The virtue of this fit is that it takes into account both data and Monte Carlo statistical uncertainties. The way in which this is done is through a standard likelihood fit using Poisson statistics; however, the template (MC) predictions are also varied within statistics, leading to additional contributions to the overall likelihood. This leads to many more fit parameters (one per bin per template), but the minimisation with respect to these additional parameters is done analytically rather than introducing them as formal fit parameters. Some special care needs to be taken in the case of bins with zero content. For more details please see the original publication cited above.

An example application of this fit is given below. For a TH1* histogram ("data") fitted as the sum of three Monte Carlo sources ("mc"):

{
TH1F *data; //data histogram
TH1F *mc0; // first MC histogram
TH1F *mc1; // second MC histogram
TH1F *mc2; // third MC histogram
.... // retrieve histograms
TObjArray *mc = new TObjArray(3); // MC histograms are put in this array
mc->Add(mc0);
mc->Add(mc1);
mc->Add(mc2);
TFractionFitter* fit = new TFractionFitter(data, mc); // initialise
fit->Constrain(1,0.0,1.0); // constrain fraction 1 to be between 0 and 1
fit->SetRangeX(1,15); // use only the first 15 bins in the fit
Int_t status = fit->Fit(); // perform the fit
std::cout << "fit status: " << status << std::endl;
if (status == 0) { // check on fit status
TH1F* result = (TH1F*) fit->GetPlot();
data->Draw("Ep");
result->Draw("same");
}
}

Assumptions

A few assumptions need to be made for the fit procedure to be carried out: 1 The total number of events in each template is not too small (so that its Poisson uncertainty can be neglected). 2 The number of events in each bin is much smaller than the total number of events in each template (so that multinomial uncertainties can be replaced with Poisson uncertainties).

Biased fit uncertainties may result if these conditions are not fulfilled (see e.g. arXiv:0803.2711).

Instantiation

A fit object is instantiated through TFractionFitter* fit = new TFractionFitter(data, mc); A number of basic checks (intended to ensure that the template histograms represent the same "kind" of distribution as the data one) are carried out. The TVirtualFitter object is then addressed and all fit parameters (the template fractions) declared (initially unbounded).

Applying constraints

Fit parameters can be constrained through

fit->Constrain(parameter #, lower bound, upper bound);

Setting lower bound = upper bound = 0 removes the constraint (a la Minuit); however, a function

fit->Unconstrain(parameter #)

is also provided to simplify this.

Setting parameter values

The function

ROOT::Fit::Fitter* fitter = fit->GetFitter();

is provided for direct access to the ROOT::Fit::Fitter object. This allows to set and fix parameter values, limits and set step sizes directly via

fitter->Config().ParSettings(parameter #).Set(const std::string &name, double value, double step, double lower, double upper);

Restricting the fit range

The fit range can be restricted through

fit->SetRangeX(first bin #, last bin #);

and freed using

fit->ReleaseRangeX();

For 2D histograms the Y range can be similarly restricted using

fit->SetRangeY(first bin #, last bin #);
fit->ReleaseRangeY();

and for 3D histograms also

fit->SetRangeZ(first bin #, last bin #);
fit->ReleaseRangeZ();

It is also possible to exclude individual bins from the fit through

fit->ExcludeBin(bin #);

where the given bin number is assumed to follow the TH1::GetBin() numbering. Any bins excluded in this way can be included again using the corresponding

fit->IncludeBin(bin #);

Weights histograms

Weights histograms (for a motivation see the above publication) can be specified for the individual MC sources through

fit->SetWeight(parameter #, pointer to weights histogram);

and unset by specifying a null pointer.

Obtaining fit results

The fit is carried out through

Int_t status = fit->Fit();

where status is the code returned from the "MINIMIZE" command. For fits that converged, parameter values and errors can be obtained through

fit->GetResult(parameter #, value, error);

and the histogram corresponding to the total Monte Carlo prediction (which is not the same as a simple weighted sum of the input Monte Carlo distributions) can be obtained by

TH1* result = fit->GetPlot();

Using different histograms

It is possible to change the histogram being fitted through

fit->SetData(TH1* data);

and to change the template histogram for a given parameter number through

fit->SetMC(parameter #, TH1* MC);

This can speed up code in case of multiple data or template histograms; however, it should be done with care as any settings are taken over from the previous fit. In addition, neither the dimensionality nor the numbers of bins of the histograms should change (in that case it is better to instantiate a new TFractionFitter object).

Errors

Any serious inconsistency results in an error.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CheckConsistency()

void TFractionFitter::CheckConsistency ( )
private

Function used internally to check the consistency between the various histograms.

◆ ComputeChisquareLambda()

void TFractionFitter::ComputeChisquareLambda ( )
private

Method used internally to compute the likelihood ratio chi2 See the function GetChisquare() for details.

inline

Definition at line 66 of file TFractionFitter.h.

◆ ExcludeBin()

void TFractionFitter::ExcludeBin ( Int_t  bin)

Exclude the given bin from the fit.

The bin numbering to be used is that of TH1::GetBin().

Definition at line 417 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ FindPrediction()

void TFractionFitter::FindPrediction ( int  bin,
double t_i,
int k_0,
double A_ki 
) const
private

Function used internally to obtain the template prediction in the individual bins 'bin' <=> 'i' (paper) 'par' <=> 'j' (paper)

Definition at line 754 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ Fit()

TFitResultPtr TFractionFitter::Fit ( )

Perform the fit with the default UP value.

The value returned is the minimisation status.

Definition at line 552 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ GetChisquare()

Double_t TFractionFitter::GetChisquare ( ) const

Return the likelihood ratio Chi-squared (chi2) for the fit.

The value is computed when the fit is executed successfully. Chi2 calculation is based on the "likelihood ratio" lambda, lambda = L(y;n) / L(m;n), where L(y;n) is the likelihood of the fit result <y> describing the data <n> and L(m;n) is the likelihood of an unknown "true" underlying distribution <m> describing the data <n>. Since <m> is unknown, the data distribution is used instead, lambda = L(y;n) / L(n;n). Note that this ratio is 1 if the fit is perfect. The chi2 value is then computed according to chi2 = -2*ln(lambda). This parameter can be shown to follow a Chi-square distribution. See for example S. Baker and R. Cousins, "Clarification of the use of chi-square and likelihood functions in fits to histograms", Nucl. Instr. Meth. A221, pp. 437-442 (1984)

Definition at line 880 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

Definition at line 318 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ GetMCPrediction()

TH1 * TFractionFitter::GetMCPrediction ( Int_t  parm) const

Return the adjusted MC template (Aji) for template (parm).

Note that the (Aji) times fractions only sum to the total prediction of the fit if all weights are 1. Note also that the histogram is managed by the TFractionFitter class, so the returned pointer will be invalid if the class is deleted

Definition at line 958 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ GetNDF()

Int_t TFractionFitter::GetNDF ( ) const

return the number of degrees of freedom in the fit the fNDF parameter has been previously computed during a fit.

The number of degrees of freedom corresponds to the number of points used in the fit minus the number of templates.

Definition at line 891 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ GetPlot()

TH1 * TFractionFitter::GetPlot ( )

Return the "template prediction" corresponding to the fit result (this is not the same as the weighted sum of template distributions, as template statistical uncertainties are taken into account).

Note that the name of this histogram will simply be the same as that of the "data" histogram, prefixed with the string "Fraction fit to hist: ". Note also that the histogram is managed by the TFractionFitter class, so the returned pointer will be invalid if the class is deleted

Definition at line 620 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

Double_t error 
) const

Obtain the fit result for parameter <parm> (the parameter numbering follows that of the input template vector).

Definition at line 601 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ IncludeBin()

void TFractionFitter::IncludeBin ( Int_t  bin)

Include the given bin in the fit, if it was excluded before using ExcludeBin().

The bin numbering to be used is that of TH1::GetBin().

Definition at line 434 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ IsExcluded()

bool TFractionFitter::IsExcluded ( Int_t  bin) const
private

Function for internal use, checking whether the given bin is excluded from the fit or not.

Definition at line 451 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

Definition at line 407 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ SetData()

void TFractionFitter::SetData ( TH1 data)

Change the histogram to be fitted to.

Notes:

  • Parameter constraints and settings are retained from a possible previous fit.
  • Modifying the dimension or number of bins results in an error (in this case rather instantiate a new TFractionFitter object)

Definition at line 270 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ SetMC()

void TFractionFitter::SetMC ( Int_t  parm,
TH1 MC 
)

Change the histogram for template number <parm>.

Notes:

  • Parameter constraints and settings are retained from a possible previous fit.
  • Modifying the dimension or number of bins results in an error (in this case rather instantiate a new TFractionFitter object)

Definition at line 282 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ SetRangeX()

void TFractionFitter::SetRangeX ( Int_t  low,
Int_t  high 
)

Set the X range of the histogram to be used in the fit.

Use ReleaseRangeX() to go back to fitting the full histogram. The consistency check ensures that no empty fit range occurs (and also recomputes the bin content integrals).

Parameters
[in]lowlower X bin number
[in]highupper X bin number

Definition at line 340 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ SetRangeY()

void TFractionFitter::SetRangeY ( Int_t  low,
Int_t  high 
)

Set the Y range of the histogram to be used in the fit (2D or 3D histograms only).

Use ReleaseRangeY() to go back to fitting the full histogram. The consistency check ensures that no empty fit range occurs (and also recomputes the bin content integrals).

Parameters
[in]lowlower X bin number
[in]highupper X bin number

Definition at line 363 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ SetRangeZ()

void TFractionFitter::SetRangeZ ( Int_t  low,
Int_t  high 
)

Set the Z range of the histogram to be used in the fit (3D histograms only).

Use ReleaseRangeY() to go back to fitting the full histogram. The consistency check ensures that no empty fit range occurs (and also recomputes the bin content integrals).

Parameters
[in]lowlower X bin number
[in]highupper X bin number

Definition at line 392 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ SetWeight()

void TFractionFitter::SetWeight ( Int_t  parm,
TH1 weight 
)

Set bin by bin weights for template number <parm> (the parameter numbering follows that of the input template vector).

Weights can be "unset" by passing a null pointer. Consistency of the weights histogram with the data histogram is checked at this point, and an error in case of problems.

Definition at line 297 of file TFractionFitter.cxx.

◆ UnConstrain()

void TFractionFitter::UnConstrain ( Int_t  parm)

Remove the constraints on the possible values of parameter <parm>.
