class TMVA::MethodHMatrix: public TMVA::MethodBase
H-Matrix method, which is implemented as a simple comparison of chi-squared estimators for signal and background, taking into account the linear correlations between the input variables This MVA approach is used by the DØ collaboration (FNAL) for the purpose of electron identification (see, eg., hep-ex/9507007). As it is implemented in TMVA, it is usually equivalent or worse than the Fisher-Mahalanobis discriminant, and it has only been added for the purpose of completeness. Two χ2 estimators are computed for an event, each one for signal and background, using the estimates for the means and covariance matrices obtained from the training sample:
TMVA then uses as normalised analyser for event (i) the ratio: (χS(i)2 − χB2(i)) (χS2(i) + χB2(i)).
