Tooling for data-driven efficiencies of the LHCb trigger

TriggerCalib - Tooling for trigger efficiencies

This repository contains tools developed for calculating trigger efficiencies in LHCb analyses and studies. The full documenation for the TriggerCalib tools can be found here: https://triggercalib.docs.cern.ch/.

At the core of these tools is the HltEff class, which implements the TISTOS method (as laid out in LHCb-PUB-2014-039) to produce trigger efficiencies in ROOT TH1/TH2 histograms. This will be extended in the near future by a .yaml-configurable interface to the class, with the aim of being familiar to users of the HltEfficiencyChecker tool for studying MC efficiencies in simulation. An additional tool, currently in planning, further extend this functionality by providing users with trigger efficiency correction tables (à la PIDCalib2) in key control channels.
