How to cite

Please cite the following (more info below):

  • The code, by using the DOI documenting this github

  • The article describing the implementation

  • If the unfolding / first-generation methods are used, cite the corresponding articles

  • If you are unfolding, make sure to document also the response, e.g. through the citation guide on OCL_response_functions

  • For the decomposition / normalization, you may cite the previous implementation by Schiller (2000).

The code: If you cite OMpy, please use the version-specific DOI found by clicking the Zenodo badge above; create a new version if necessary. The DOI is to last published version; the master branch may be ahead of the published version.

The full version (including the git commit) can also be obtained from ompy.__full_version__ after installation.

The article: The article describing the implementation is now published in Comp. Phys. Comm. (2021): A new software implementation of the Oslo method with rigorous statistical uncertainty propagation DOI: 10.1016/j.cpc.2020.107795.

Other methods: We have reimplemented the unfolding [Guttormsen (1996)] and first generation method [Guttormsen (1987)], see also documentation in the corresponding classes. The decomposition/normalization is subject to the same degeneracy as shown in [Schiller (2000)], but the minimizer and the normalization procedure are different, which is explained in detail in the OMpy article.
