Hi Rene, hi rooters, I am trying to fit several spectra obtained with different set of cuts. Most of them can be fit easily with one or both minimizers (I usually use both as cross check), i.e. TMinuit and TFumili. But sometimes, the fit failed for both. This seem to be due to some little bit correleted parameters of my user defined functionnal. I could try to rewrite it but I put it in an easy way for later use. So I would like to keep it as it is and I was thinking about new minimizers... Especially, I heard some minimizers can overcome correlation within parameters (Lagrange multiplicators). So I wondered whether we have such minimizers in ROOT.
