ROOT::Minuit2::FumiliErrorUpdator Class Reference

In the case of the Fumili algorithm the Error matrix (or the Hessian matrix containing the (approximate) second derivatives) is calculated using a linearization of the model function negleting second derivatives.

(In some sense the Name Updator is a little bit misleading as the Error matrix is not calculated by iteratively updating, like in Davidon's or other similar variable metric methods, but by recalculating each time).

◆ Update() [1/2]

MinimumError ROOT::Minuit2::FumiliErrorUpdator::Update ( const MinimumState fMinimumState,
const MinimumParameters fMinimumParameters,
const GradientCalculator fGradientCalculator,
double  lambda 
) const
virtual

Member function that calculates the Error matrix (or the Hessian matrix containing the (approximate) second derivatives) using a linearization of the model function negleting second derivatives.

Parameters
fMinimumStateused to calculate the change in the covariance matrix between the two iterations
fMinimumParametersthe parameters at the present iteration
fGradientCalculatorthe Gradient calculator used to retrieved the Parameter transformation
fFumiliFCNBasethe function calculating the figure of merit.

◆ Update() [2/2]

MinimumError ROOT::Minuit2::FumiliErrorUpdator::Update ( const MinimumState s0,
const MinimumParameters p1,
const FunctionGradient g1 
) const
virtual

Member function which is only present due to the design already in place of the software.

As all classes calculating the Error matrix are supposed inherit from the MinimumErrorUpdator they must inherit this method. In some methods calculating the aforementioned matrix some of these parameters are not needed and other parameters are necessary... Hopefully, a more elegant solution will be found in the future.

Implements ROOT::Minuit2::MinimumErrorUpdator.
