News ------- - 31-May-2017 : svn-r5099 updated `Background Example <#background-example>`__ & `Simulation Example <#simulation-example>`__ in the online manual. - 5-May-2017 : svn-r5089 Created WAT release : **wat-6.2.1** List of main algorithmic changes: - Adaptive regulator: The general purpose of the CWB regulator is to constrain the x-component of the signal when \|f+\|>>\|fx\| and the x-component is completely burried in the detector noise - this is very tipical for existing detector networks (particularly the LH network). - Estimation of the signal degrees of freedom required for more accurate calculation of the signal chi2. - Normalized coherent energy - Robust estimation of the network correlation coefficient - Additional signal denoising for improved waveform reconstruction - Improve chirp mass estimation - 15-September-2016 : svn-r4903 List of main algorithmic changes: - selection of hot pixels: additional options for selection of excess power pixels based on pixel patterns - selection of hot pixels: new pixel THRESHOLD function - in cWB the noise probability distribution function and therefore the excess power threshold depends on the TF resolution and network configuration. The packet construction requires a better estimation of the noise PDF - hence a new threshold function. - clustering: introduced selection of clusters for each WDM resolution - for the packet version of the code weak clusters are excluded before super-clusters are constructed. It allows us to relax the subcut selection cut (subcut=0) - reconstruction (pdf) : Signal amplitudes are calculated from the data projections on f+ and fx antenna pattern vectors. The signal waveforms are reconstructed from the multi-resolution WDM packet. The packet reconstruction algorithms are implemented in a separate likelihoodWP function. - 31-July-2015 : svn-r4474 Created the tagged release : `wat-6.1.0 <#wat-installation>`__ new skyloc statistic, new delta and gamma regulators `(regulators : svn>=4446) <#the-cwb-2g-regulators-svn-le-4446>`__ and many bug fixes : version to be used for online - 22-May-2015 : svn-r4316 Created the tagged release : `wat-6.0.3 <#wat-installation>`__ New Sky Regulators & New Polarization Constraints + many bug fixes `(regulators : (4160<=svn<4446)) <#the-cwb-2g-regulators-gt-4160-svn-lt-4446>`__ - 12-November-2014 : svn-r3961 Created the tagged release : `wat-6.0.1 <#wat-installation>`__ - 07-November-2014 : svn-r3945 Created the first release of `wat-6.0.0 <#wat-installation>`__ - 24-March-2014 : svn-r3266 updated **cWB on a VirtualBox** the new release contains updated WAT,ROOT,FRAMELIB libraries see : `cWB on a VirtualBox <#cwb-on-a-virtualbox>`__ - 03-February-2014 : svn-r3056 Added `How to do an interactive multistages 2G analysis <#how-to-do-an-interactive-multistages-2g-analysis>`__ - 19-January-2014 : svn-r3006 **Online Manual Major Update** - 04-June-2013 : svn-r2350 added **cWB on a VirtualBox** see : `cWB on a VirtualBox <#cwb-on-a-virtualbox>`__ - 03-June-2013 : svn-r2334 added **Added search box** - | 27-May-2013 : svn-r2317 | added **eBBH : eccentric Binary Black Holes** | New eBBH package has been added to svn by Valentin Necula | see trunk/tools/eBBH/README | eBBH uses the CVODE package | The CVODE library has been installed in CIT/AYLAS clusters, see | `CVODE Library at ATLAS - /home/waveburst/SOFT/CVODE `__ | see : | `CVODE installation <#cvode-installation>`__ | `WAT installation <#wat-installation>`__ : how to compile wat with eBBH | The mdc class has been modified to include the simulation of eBBH | :cwb_library: `CWB::mdc` : see MDC_EBBH | New tutorial which shown how to produce eBBH frames files + log files | trunk/tools/wavemdc/tutorials/wavemdc_eBBH_L1H1V1 | New examples which shown how to test the eBBH waveforms with the 2G cwb pipeline | `trunk/tools/cwb/examples/ADV_SIM_EBBH_L1H1V1 <#adv-sim-ebbh-l1h1v1>`__ - 12-April-2013 : implemented save skymap probability to output root file fits output format compliant to CBC added example - a simulation with a "On the Fly" GWGC distribution and L1H1 network `ADV_SIM_BRST_LF_GWGC_L1H1_1G <#adv-sim-brst-lf-gwgc-l1h1-1G>`__ - 8-April-2013 : added iota parameter in CWB::mdc::SetSkyDistribution :cwb_library: `CWB::mdc::SetSkyDistribution` : simulation of elliptical waveforms - 6-April-2013 : added example `How to generate CED of the BigDog vs HW Injection with EASY CED <#how-to-generate-ced-of-the-bigdog-event>`__ - 6-April-2013 : added plugins & examples for GWHEN analysis `HEN Plugins <#plugins>`__ `S6A_R4_SIM_SGC_L1H1V1_HEN <#s6a-r4-sim-sgc-l1h1v1-hen>`__ `S6A_R4_BKG_L1H1V1_HEN <#s6a-r4-bkg-l1h1v1-hen>`__ - 29-March-2013 : svn-r2119 reimplementation of `easy CED <#cwb-eced>`__ - 28-March-2013 Pre-Compiled CWB plugins can loaded - see `Plugins <#plugins>`__ - 27-March-2013 implemented 2G multistage in condor - see `cwb_condor <#cwb-condor>`__ - 26-March-2013 implemented write MDC log file (On The Fly MDC) - see :cwb_library: `CWB_Plugin_InjectCBC.C` - 25-March-2013 `easy CED <#cwb-eced>`__ - 19-March-2013 `How to do Analysis - mini-tutorial <#how-to-do-Analysis-mini-tutorial>`__ - `LVC Burst Group Face-to-Face Meeting March 19 2013 Maryland `__
