Summary : Optimized computation functions for PDFs
URL : https://root.cern/
License : LGPLv2+
Description : While fitting, a significant amount of time and processing power is
: spent on computing the probability function for every event and PDF
: involved in the fitting model. To speed up this process, roofit can
: use the computation functions provided in this library. The functions
: provided here process whole data arrays (batches) instead of a single
: event at a time, as in the legacy evaluate() function in roofit. In
: addition, the code is written in a manner that allows for compiler
: optimizations, notably auto-vectorization. This library is compiled
: multiple times for different vector instuction set architectures and
: the optimal code is executed during runtime, as a result of an
: automatic hardware detection mechanism that this library contains.
