Generates pull distribution for all model parameters.

Synopsis

Generates pull distributions for all parameters in a model. The pull is defined by the fitted value minus the simulated true value, devided by the statistical uncertainty. For unbiased parameter estimates, the pull distribution should follow a Gaussian centred on 0 and a sigma parameter of 1.

General parameters

inobs [file]
Event list, counts cube, or observation definition XML file.
inmodel [file]
XML file that describes the astrophysical sources and the instrumental background.
outfile [file]
ASCII file containing the individual pull values.
caldb [string]
Calibration database.
irf [string]
Instrumental response function.
(deadc = 0.95) [real]
Average deadtime correction factor.
(edisp = no) [boolean]
Apply energy dispersion to response computation?
(profile = no) [boolean]
Use likelihood profile method for errors?
ntrials [integer]
Number of samples for generating the pull distribution.
ra [real]
Right Ascension of CTA pointing (J2000, in degrees).
dec [real]
Declination of CTA pointing (J2000, in degrees).
coordsys <CEL|GAL> [string]
Coordinate system (CEL - celestial, GAL - galactic).
proj <AIT|AZP|CAR|MER|MOL|STG|TAN> [string]
Projection method.
emin [real]
Lower energy limit of events (in TeV).
emax [real]
Upper energy limit of events (in TeV).
enumbins [integer]
Number of energy bins (0=unbinned).
(tmin = 0.0) [real]
Start time (in seconds).
tmax [real]
Stop time (in seconds).
npix [integer]
Number of pixels for binned analysis.
binsz [real]
Pixel size for binned analysis.
(rad = 5.0) [real]
ROI radius (in degrees).
(pattern = single) [string]
Pattern for pointing simulation (single/four).
(offset = 1.5) [real]
Observation pattern offset (in degrees).

Standard parameters

(chatter = 2) [integer]
Verbosity of the executable:

chatter = 0: no information will be logged

chatter = 1: only errors will be logged

chatter = 2: errors and actions will be logged

chatter = 3: report about the task execution

chatter = 4: detailed report about the task execution

(clobber = yes) [boolean]
Specifies whether an existing output counts cube should be overwritten.
(debug = no) [boolean]
Enables debug mode. In debug mode the executable will dump any log file output to the console.
(mode = ql) [string]
Mode of automatic parameters (default is "ql", i.e. "query and learn").
(logfile = cspull.log) [string]
Log filename.
