// Illustrates how to find peaks in histograms. // This script generates a random number of gaussian peaks // on top of a linear background. // The position of the peaks is found via TSpectrum and injected // as initial values of parameters to make a global fit. // The background is computed and drawn on top of the original histogram. // // To execute this example, do // root > .x peaks.C (generate 10 peaks by default) // root > .x peaks.C++ (use the compiler) // root > .x peaks.C++(30) (generates 30 peaks) // // To execute only the first part of the script (without fitting) // specify a negative value for the number of peaks, eg // root > .x peaks.C(-20) // //Author: Rene Brun #include "TCanvas.h" #include "TMath.h" #include "TH1.h" #include "TF1.h" #include "TRandom.h" #include "TSpectrum.h" #include "TVirtualFitter.h" Int_t npeaks = 30; Double_t fpeaks(Double_t *x, Double_t *par) { Double_t result = par[0] + par[1]*x[0]; for (Int_t p=0;pRndm()*980; par[3*p+4] = 3+2*gRandom->Rndm(); } TF1 *f = new TF1("f",fpeaks,0,1000,2+3*npeaks); f->SetNpx(1000); f->SetParameters(par); TCanvas *c1 = new TCanvas("c1","c1",10,10,1000,900); c1->Divide(1,2); c1->cd(1); h->FillRandom("f",200000); h->Draw(); TH1F *h2 = (TH1F*)h->Clone("h2"); //Use TSpectrum to find the peak candidates TSpectrum *s = new TSpectrum(2*npeaks); Int_t nfound = s->Search(h,2,"",0.10); printf("Found %d candidate peaks to fit\n",nfound); //Estimate background using TSpectrum::Background TH1 *hb = s->Background(h,20,"same"); if (hb) c1->Update(); if (np <0) return; //estimate linear background using a fitting method c1->cd(2); TF1 *fline = new TF1("fline","pol1",0,1000); h->Fit("fline","qn"); //Loop on all found peaks.
