 ===Tuning Accord and Strategies=== ===Tuning Accord and Strategies===
-  * What is currently done? +  * What is currently done: 
-  ​* ​Common framework? +    ​- ​Common framework ​for tuning exist, but no single script to run 
-  * Better documentation ​of existing ​framework +      - Nice to have a script, which automatically prints exactly what is done and with which flags 
-  ​* ​Benchmark sets of data+    - Every generator team does tuning on their own 
 +    - Almost no documentation on the tunes provided 
 +      - Rarely publicly available weights 
 +      - Rarely publicly available tuning options (samples, interpolation order, flags used, ...) 
 +      - Often post-processing tune by eye 
 +  * Goals of the project: 
 +    - Coordination among generator authors of Herwig, Pythia and Sherpa (mattermost channel?) 
 +    - Common ​framework ​for tuning exist, but no single reproducible script: 
 +      - Stefan K. trying to provide this in Professor, which automatically documents what version, options, flags, etc. are being run  
 +      - Someone could do something similar in Apprentice 
 +    - Les Houches Accord on some Benchmark ​observable+weight ​sets
 +      - Observable quality & quantity requirements:​ 
 +        - No ratio Rivets if full information is available?​ 
 +        - Reduce double counting ​of observables:​ 
 +          - No gaps in histogram (see e.g. some ALEPH identified particle momentum distribution) 
 +          - Smaller bin-width is preferred 
 +          - Enough statistics:​ 
 +            - NOTE: If the errors of the data are to small a theory uncertainty should be provided to the tuning framework otherwise the minimization will likely over-fit this data 
 +      - Benchmark sets: 
 +        - Conservative set of selected (IRC safe?) Event Shapes: 
 +          - Input from perturbative experts needed 
 +          - Only close to the peak, where hadronization is not dominant 
 +        - Provide global sets from each generator to gather information 
 +        - Ultimate goals: 
 +          - Minimal set of accorded observables+weights among all generators for comparability 
 +            - Tune using $\chi^2$ (more strict) and $\chi^2/​(1+\chi^2)$ (less strict) 
 +          - Maximal set of accorded observables+weights among all generators for comparability 
 +            - Tune using $\chi^2$ (more strict) and $\chi^2/​(1+\chi^2)$ (less strict) 
 +    - Provide recommendations to experiments on tuning? 
 +      - ...
