MINUIT: a system for function minimization and analysis of the parameter errors and corrections

The analysis of experimental data often includes determining (estimating) a certain number of physical parameters and establishing the errors (confidence regions) of these parameters. This in turn generally involves one or more stages of function minimization to determine the best parameter values a...

Sumario:The analysis of experimental data often includes determining (estimating) a certain number of physical parameters and establishing the errors (confidence regions) of these parameters. This in turn generally involves one or more stages of function minimization to determine the best parameter values and various techniques for investigating the shape of the function near the minimum to determine the errors.
