Welcome to the pyBumpHunter wiki!

pyBumpHunter provide two unique classes that contains all the required methods to "bump hunt" with ease in both 1 and 2 dimensions.

The BumpHunter1D class allows to use the BumpHunter algorithm on 1D distributions.
It has been tested against the c++ internal version developed by the ATLAS collaboration.

The BumpHunter2D class is a extension of the BumpHunter algorithm to 2D distributions.
This is a new way of "bump hunting".
NOTE :
Since it is (apparently) the first application of the BumpHunter algorithm in 2D, the BumpHunter2D class is still under testing.
