How To Install root-tmva on CentOS 8

root-tmva is Toolkit for multivariate data analysis

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install root-tmva on CentOS 8.

What is `root-tmva`

The Toolkit for Multivariate Analysis (TMVA) provides a ROOT-integrated environment for the parallel processing and evaluation of MVA techniques to discriminate signal from background samples. It presently includes (ranked by complexity) * Rectangular cut optimization * Correlated likelihood estimator (PDE approach) * Multi-dimensional likelihood estimator (PDE - range-search approach) * Fisher (and Mahalanobis) discriminant * H-Matrix (chi-squared) estimator * Artificial Neural Network (two different implementations) * Boosted Decision Trees The TMVA package includes an implementation for each of these discrimination techniques, their training and testing (performance evaluation). In addition all these methods can be tested in parallel, and hence their performance on a particular data set may easily be compared.

We can use yum or dnf to install root-tmva on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install root-tmva.

Install root-tmva on CentOS 8 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

After updating yum database, We can install root-tmva using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install root-tmva
