Purpose

  • update genie

New features

  • LArSoft/larpandoracontent#52
    • This PR for larpandoracontent version v04_03_03 updates feature map handling for the TrackShowerIdFeatureTool to directly pass InitializedDoubles rather than primitive doubles, preventing an exception being thrown in the event of an uninitialized feature.
    • This update may alter product outputs where uninitialized features were present previously (on the order of one PFP in every 400 events).
  • LArSoft/larpandora#36
    • This PR for larpandora v09_19_00 converts the usage of CollectHits in LArPandora.cxx into an art tool to allow customisation at this stage of input. The intention is to have an optional tool in icaruscode that performs some filtering on the hits. The default functionality retains the previous behaviour and therefore does not impact other experiments.

Purpose

  • approved PRs

New features

  • LArSoft/larwirecell#28
  • LArSoft/larreco#54
    • INormalizeCharge interface extension to allow per-event setup.
    • This request is for support to SBNSoftware/icaruscode#543.
    • The INormalizeCharge interface is extended to support a "setup" stage where the tool is expected to extract whatever it needs from the event.
    • A default no-op implementation is provided.
    • One of the implementations of this interface in icaruscode will use it to cache the detector clocks data.
    • Note that the current interface already allows access to the event on each normalisation call; therefore alternative approaches are also possible that do not change the interface at all, e.g. caching the detector clocks data at the first call, and for the following calls refresh the cache only if the event ID has changed. This approach has all the usual drawbacks (more cumbersome, has a minor overhead and makes multithreading more complicate).
  • LArSoft/larpandoracontent#51
    • This PR for larpandoracontent version v04_03_02 adds support for GitHub actions to be run in the PandoraPFA LArContent repository. Actions should be skipped in the LArSoft repository and no product changes are expected.
  • Particle Ancestry Map
    • LArSoft/lardataobj#34
    • Currently in the largeant processes (as of ~1 year ago) we are producing a std::map<int, std::set> which indicates the mapping of dropped track IDs (the set of ints) to their undropped ancestor (the key). This object should allow you to find the intended ancestor if you have a track ID for which you cannot access the MCParticle.
    • This object has a few flaws:
      • It doesn't have a name, which makes it very hard for analysers to know what it does (unless you know in advance).
      • It cannot be kept or dropped using the output and input commands in fcl (as a result of not having a name that can be recognised by these prescriptions).
      • When multiple instances of largeant are ran, the MergeSimSources (larsim) module doesn't merge these objects so you lose it from the event. Running multiple largeant instances is a pretty common approach in SBND (and I'm sure in other experiments).
      • Even if you hack the fcl file to keep the original maps, the track ID offsets applied in MergeSimSources are lost, so the maps values are garbage.
    • This PR produces a wrapper object in order to solve all of the above flaws. This also provides a few useful functions to access the information.
    • It will be accompanied by PRs in larg4 and larsim in order to produce the object, and have the ability to merge it.
    • In SBND this object isn't currently used in develop (I ran across this issue in a feature branch, which will later be prepared for develop) so shouldn't be a breaking change. The CI should help indicate whether any other repos use this object and will therefore need to update their usage.
    • LArSoft/larg4#45
    • Produce the new sim::ParticleAncestryMap rather than a raw std::map<int, std::set>
    • LArSoft/larsim#110
    • This PR adds the new sim::ParticleAncestryMap to the MergeSimSources module.

Purpose

  • approved PRs

New features

  • LArSoft/larsim#111
    • Refactoring of PhotonPropagation classes to substantially reduce overhead
    • While inspecting the code for bugs I tend to make changes to the code to make tests. I've collected enough of these changes that it makes sense to put them together neatly.
    • This PR improves performance times and hopefully improves the organisation of the code. The processing time per event doesn't change much, but the initialisation is substantially reduced.
    • Functionality stays largely the same, but there is is a small change in the time propagation distribution, which is expected.
    • Main changes:
      • Change from using ROOT RNG to CLHEP::RandGeneral
      • Create PhotonPropagationUtils to host functions defined twice elsewhere
      • Use references of the fcl parameters, instead of copying the objects
      • Move PropagationTimeModel and SemiAnalyticalModel to the phot namespace
      • Simplify the initialisation and reduce the number of class members, moving several things around and creating some functions to use them during initialisation
      • Round scintillation times instead of flooring them
      • Stop using TVector3
      • Regularise the syntax and clean comments
  • LArSoft/larsim#112
    • Save MotherTrackID in the SimPhotons
    • Running the light simulation withSimPhotons we found the MotherTrackID attribute was not being filled. This PR fixes this.
    • also add the MotherTrackID to PDFastSimPVS_module.cc
  • LArSoft/larg4#46
    • Changes in ParticleList.cc to run full light simulation
    • Particles are now added to the particle list only on their first step. Also add particles to the particle list with energy below the energy cut if it is an optical photon.
    • See the presentation
  • LArSoft/larg4#44
    • Currently simulated energy deposits for which we are not saving the relevant MCParticle follow the prescription of being stored with a trackID of:
    • -1 * the trackID of their first ancestor which was saved
    • This is applied in ParticleListAction, and the effects of it are applied to sim::SimEnergyDeposits in LArG4Detector.
    • In SBND we use sim::SimEnergyDeposits for our TPC & PDS systems but sim::AuxDetHits for our CRT. I noticed that the same prescription is not applied to the sim::AuxDetHits to update their track IDs.
    • This PR employs a similar block to do this. I haven't added this to the other objects mentioned in this area of the code but that may be something that people want to consider going forward.

Purpose

  • approved PRs

New features

  • Added dumper for recob::OpHit and recob::OpFlash
    • LArSoft/lardataobj#35
      • This pull request adds stream output for recob::OpHit and recob::OpFlash data product classes.
    • LArSoft/lardata#31
      • While working at LArSoft/larana#25, I realised that there is no dumper for recob::OpHit data products yet. The simple module in the pull request tries to fill the gap. (There is none for recob::OpFlash either, but right now I am not filling that gap.)
      • There is the question whether it is preferred for an operator<< (std::ostream&, recob::OpHit const&) to be defined in the data product library (in lardataobj, like for the most part of TPC reconstruction classes) instead.
      • The updated pull request also adds a new dumper for recob::OpFlash.
  • LArSoft/larana#26
    • Optical hit reconstruction algorithms selected via art tools
    • The current optical hit reconstruction is performed by algorithms managed by a "mini-framework". The management of the algorithms in LArSoft is semi-dynamic (or semi-static?), in that the algorithms are chosen at run time, but only among a hard-coded selection of algorithms.
    • This pull request changes the loading mechanism in ophit::OpHitFinder module to leverage on art tool feature. The algorithms are not changed (neither their functionality, nor the interface).
    • This allows the experiments to test additional algorithms or modifications of the existing ones without forking OpHitFinder module.
  • LArSoft/larbatch#22
    • Add support for token authentication. Make project.py more tolerant of imperfect environment initialization by not requiring the ability to import ROOT when submitting jobs.

Bug fixes

  • LArSoft/larpandoracontent#50
    • This PR for larpandoracontent version v04_03_01 ensures that unfilled features for the neutrino slice ID do not attempt to persist their metadata.
  • LArSoft/larana#25
    • Bug fixes to optical hit pedestal reconstruction "rolling mean" algorithm
    • Two details of the rolling mean pedestal algorithm are almost surely bugs.
    • A fix is presented here.
    • The first sees an increase of a threshold as more and more hits are processed in the job. Eventually the threshold will become unpassable and the code will never use interpolation to cover the signal (or high-RMS regions) of the waveforms, but always use the pedestal before or after the region. Which is probably a more sensitive choice at least in ICARUS.
    • The second bug is repeated in two places. In the first, it makes the post-region baseline (mean) be 0 (because extracted out of 0 samples), and the algorithm is most likely going to choose the mean on the pre-region instead. Which is probably a more sensitive choice at least in ICARUS. In the second, the pre-region mean is extracted from a slightly extended interval, affecting the pedestal of the region at the beginning of the waveform if there is signal in it. The effect of this one is likely completely negligible.
    • The impact seems very, very minor on three events from ICARUS data I have tested.
    • Developed and tested with icaruscode v09_65_03.

Purpose

  • approved PRs

New features

  • LArSoft/larpandoracontent#49
    • v04_03_00 update incorporates modifications to the vertex finding network (both a network architecture change and a modification to the preparation of the input tensors). As this update relates to vertex creation product changes are expected for Pandora products and downstream products relying on them.
    • There is a corresponding update to DUNE/dunereco that makes use of the new networks in the HD accelerator workflow and adds the DL vertex network for the VD accelerator workflow. Correct operation of the networks depends upon the larpandoracontent and dunereco changes being released together.
    • DUNE/dunereco#37
  • LArSoft/larcorealg#35
    • Changes to support PyROOT usage.
    • PyROOT cannot understand an auto return type specification.
    • Also includes fixing ODR violations of inline end/begin free functions.
  • LArSoft/larreco#51
    • Add N+1 peak fitting
    • This PR re-adds a feature to try and fit N+1 Gaussians when fitting N yields poor results that was removed when the hit finding was refactored to use tools. This re-implementation tries to be much smarter about the initial parameters of the extra Gaussian should be added.
    • This feature is disabled by default so no changes to existing workflows are expected.
  • LArSoft/larpandora#34
    • Add SummedIntegral Calorimetry to dE/dx
    • Similarly to LArSoft/larreco#51, this adds the ability to sum the integral of all hits within a snippet when calculating the shower dE/dx. This behaviour is disabled by default and thus no changes to existing workflows are expected.
  • LArSoft/larreco#53
    • add geomName for protodunevd
  • LArSoft/larreco#52
    • This PR adds a new charge method to the calorimetry module. This new method sums the integral of all hits within a snippet. It aims to address the same issues as the SummedADC method but better handles the case where hits within the same snippet are assigned to different tracks.
    • No changes to expected existing are expected.

  • LArSoft/larana#24
    • OpHits: Simple RiseTimeGaussFit tool added
    • Instead of computing rise time of Optical Hits with respect to the relative max amplitude, this tool looks for the first maximum of an optical signal and fits the peak to a gaussian.
    • The tool has a minimum Amplitud threshold for it to be considered the maximum, and a tolerance number of bins, to prevent bad fittings.
    • This approach has been tested with good results in the reconstruction of filtered X-Arapuca signals in SBND simulations.
