- List displaced signatures in missing topologies
- Improved description about lifetime reweighting in doc
- Fix in cluster for asymmetric masses
- Small improvements in the interactive plots tool
New in Version 1.2.1:¶
- Fix in particleNames.py for non-MSSM models
- Fixed the marginalize recipe
- Fixed the T2bbWWoff 44 signal regions plots in ConfrontPredictions in manual
New in Version 1.2.0:¶

New in Version 1.1.0:¶
- the inclusion of efficiency maps (see EM-type results)
- a new and more flexible database format (see Database structure)
- inclusion of likelihood and \(\chi^2\) calculation for EM-type results (see likelihood calculation)
