Welcome to the RooStats Wiki
This is a wiki for
RooStats development.
RooStats is a project to create statistical tools built on top of
RooFit and distributed in ROOT. It is a joint project between the LHC experiments and the ROOT team. There is an
draft users guide
, which is under development (currently 38 pages).
How to get it?
All you need is the
latest ROOT release
. The code is developing quickly, so you may need to

Organization
The
RooStats project has an oversight committee formed by the heads of the ATLAS and CMS statistics forums. Through several joint ATLAS-CMS statistics meetings we have converged on a structure in which the oversight committee sets goals and priorities for tool development (at a high level), adjudicates any conflicts that might arise, and helps find manpower if needed. The development of
RooStats is open in nature, with four core developers:
- Kyle Cranmer representing ATLAS
- Gregory Schott representing CMS
- Lorenzo Moneta representing ROOT
- Wouter Verkerke representing RooFit (on which RooStats is based)
These core developers have access to ROOT's SVN repository.
