      gstlal_inspiral_plot_background: · 7c4da989
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - restore to a functioning state following addition of template bank info to ranking statistic objects
      - this actually breaks the dag's final web pages, but what the dag was making plot_background plot before was actually always a little bit nonsense
      - the problem was it was using the contents of the final maginalized-across-everything ranking stat data file to provide the SNR, \chi^2 PDFs, but those aren't meaningful, they're marginalized across all bank fragments, and do not reflect the ranking statistic used to actually rank anything.  also, when you add them together the total event count appears much higher than it would've been for any individual bank fragment causing the density estimation kernel to come into tighter focus, giving an inaccurate impression of the actual amount of blurry smoothing used when ranking candidates.
      - the patch to add template bank information to the ranking statistic included a safety check to prevent ranking statistic marginalization across template bank bin, and the marginalization jobs were taught not to do it, so the final marginalized-across-everything file no longer contains SNR, \chi^2 PDFs at all.
      - this patch to plot_background teaches it how to extract ranking statistic data from a collection of files which it indexes internally by template ID, allowing it to generate per-bank-fragment SNR and \chi^2 PDF plots, except the web pages don't know about the new plots or their names.  that can be fixed later

      RankingStatPDF: adjust extinction model · a5465197
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - with V(t) weighting in the numerator, some candidates get rejected by the
        ranking statistic because they get collected during times when the PSD
        hadn't settled yet.  this results in a spike of zero-lag events at ln L =
        -inf, which can confuse the extinction model's attempt to find the mode
        of the zero-lag ranking statistic's distribution when fitting the
        extinction model to the data.
      - this patch zeros the first few bin counts of the zero-lag PDF before the
        fit, and makes an equivalent adjustment to the threshold selection in
        FAPFAR, in order to (help) make sure the mode select for these is the
        mode we care about.

      FAPFAR: fix off-by-one-bin bug · 278924b4
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - in mapping ln L to false-alarm rates
      - because we are interested in counts *above* thresholds, not below, the count in a bin should be associated with the lower boundary of the bin, not the upper boundary

      far.py: add some safety checks · 474e3aaa
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - don't allow .new_with_extinction() if the zero-lag counts are all 0
      - init FARFAR.__init__(), provide a more useful error message if the zero-lag counts are all 0 (FAPFAR would not initialize, so it would not produce incorrect results, but the failure messages were cryptic)

      plotfar: restore the rates pie chart to operation · c0134442
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - sort of:  it now only shows quantities related to noise rates.  a new plot will be constructed for signal related quantities.

      gstlal-inspiral: port to new ranking statistic · 252b8d2f
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - switch numerator and denominator PDFs to a rate.BinnedLnPDF + snglcoinc.LnLRDensity() -based implementation
      - add trigger rate tracking feature to denominator, taking advantage of new high-speed coincidence rate machinery in snglcoinc
      - add signal rate tracking feature to numerator, taking advantage of pre-computed P(instruments) factors in SNR PDF look-up table
      - switch ranking statistic distribution to a rate.BinnedLnPDF -based implementation
      - remove search_summary tables, attach all livetime tracking to the trigger rate data in the denominator object
      
      this is a work in progress.  some notable features that are still missing:
      
      - --min-log-L cut based candidate rate reduction feature in gstlal_inspiral is disabled
      - online mode for gstlal_inspiral is non-functional

      more search_summary table removal · e783dd31
      Kipp Cannon authored
      - remove search_summary table clean-up from de_calc_likelihood.sql
      - an earlier patch stopped calc_likelihood from populating the search summary, and this should have gone in with that.
