Hi,
I’ve launched a RooFit to do analysis of setting an UPPER LIMIT.
The background model is a linear function. The signal model is a kind of complicated, represented as “OOnePdf”.
w.factory("BkgLinearPdf:bkg_pdf(x[0,10], a[2.5,1.0,30.0], b[-0.013,-0.012])");/// a,interceipt; b, slope.
w.factory("OOnePdf:sig_pdf(x[0,10],cof[1.0,0.0,1.0E1])");
w.factory("SUM:model(nsig[0,15]*sig_pdf, nbkg[0,15]*bkg_pdf)");
I’ve set the “cof” as POI.
Although these error messages appeared, the scripts finished their running, and produced a few plots, as attached.
............... Lots of "ERROR:Eval" omitted here ....................

My questions are :
1). How one can interpret those error messages correctly ? How they might originate from ?
2). There’re totally 53 scanned points, some of these points have CLs = -1.
Can I understand like this : only the points of “CLb = 0 and CLs = -1” are meaningless, wile the points “CLb != 0 and CLs != -1” are meaningful ?
Thanks !
Best,
