class OverlapRemover : public xAH::Algorithm

A wrapper of the overlap removal tool in the ASG AssociationUtils package.

The logic of the OLR belongs to the ASG tool itself, and is described extensively in the Analysis Harmonisation Task Force note.

If you wish to apply a custom OLR scheme, please contact the author marco.milesi@cern.ch for detailed instructions.

The idea behind this algorithm is to consistently thread together the inputs from upstream xAODAnaHelpers algorithms based on user’s configuration, handling also the case where systematics on the input physics objects are taken into account. Here follows a usage example.

Consider the simplified scenario where we care only about jets** and electrons. Assuming the typical xAODAnaHelpers analysis configuration through xAH_config, the analysis workflow could look like the following:

c = xAH_config()
# ...
c.algorithm("JetSelector", JetSelectorDict)
c.algorithm("ElectronSelector", ElectronSelectorDict)
# ...
c.algorithm("OverlapRemover", OverlapRemoverDict)
# ...

where each algorithm has the following I/O systematics configuration (via python dictionaries):

 JetSelectorDict = {
     # ...
     "m_inputAlgo" : "JetCalibrator_Syst",
     "m_outputAlgo" : "JetSelector_Syst",
     # ...
 }

 ElectronSelectorDict = {
     # ...
     "m_inputAlgo" : "ElectronCalibrator_Syst",
     "m_outputAlgo" : "ElectronSelector_Syst",
     # ...
}

OverlapRemoverDict = {
     # ...
     "m_inputAlgoJets" : "JetSelector_Syst", # leave empty when not considering jet systematics
     "m_inputAlgoElectrons" : "ElectronSelector_Syst", # leave empty when not considering electron systematics
     # ...
}

In this way the overlap removal algorithm will be able to correctly work out all the combinatorics, generating output xAOD containers for jets and electrons for each input systematics combination to be subsequently used downstream according to the user’s needs. The overlap removal algorithm creates an output systematic list that is a combination of systematics from all input containers.
