| - description: | |
153 |
| - In terms of minimization time, Roofit offers faster results even with numerical |
154 |
| - differentiation techniques as compared to minimizing a likelihood function that |
155 |
| - is written by hand in C++, due its complex caching logic. Automatic differentiation |
156 |
| - gives an additional speedup and more accuracy and scalability for problems with large |
157 |
| - number of parameters. The purpose of this project will be to firstly use Minuit as |
158 |
| - an optimization algorithm with externally provided gradients, extend support to cover |
159 |
| - HistFactory and other parts of RooFit, and finally to optimize Clad generated derivatives a |
160 |
| - nd further explore how they can be parallelized (OpenMP or CUDA). |
