Definition of dataclass models to ease attribute access https://github.com/diana-hep/madminer/pull/485: Benchmark. FiniteDiffBenchmark. AnalysisParameter. NuisanceParameter. Cut, Efficiency and Observable. Systematic (and the SystematicType enum https://github.com/diana-hep/madminer/commit/6183d555ef0b367af24ab1193c0a98bd95fb5460). Breaking changes There are multiple backward compatibility breaking changes to consider ⚠️ : The HDF5 file keys to store madminer settings and / or serialized data have changed. We recommend re-creating them. The methods LHEReader.add_cut() and DelphesReader.add_cut() got their pass_if_not_parsed arg. renamed to required. The method LHEReader.add_efficiency() got its value_if_not_parsed arg. renamed to default. The function combine_and_shuffle got its overwrite_existing_file unused argument removed.If you use this software, please cite it as below
