TUnuranEmpDist Class Reference

TUnuranEmpDist class for describing empiral distributions.

It is used by TUnuran to generate double random number according to this distribution via TUnuran::Sample() or TUnuran::Sample(double *) in case of multi-dimensional empirical distributions.

An empirical distribution can be one or multi-dimension constructed from a set of unbinned data, (the class can be constructed from an iterator to a vector of data) or by using an histogram (with apointer to the TH1 class). If the histogram contains a buffer with the original data they are used by default to estimate the empirical distribution, othewise the bins information is used. In this binned case only one dimension is now supported.

In the case of unbinned data the density distribution is estimated by UNURAN using kernel smoothing and then random numbers are generated. In the case of bin data (which can only be one dimension) the probability density is estimated directly from the histograms and the random numbers are generated according to the histogram (like in TH1::GetRandom). This method requires some initialization time but it is faster in generating the random numbers than TH1::GetRandom and it becomes convenient to use when generating a large amount of data.
