chroma - Chroma is a high performance optical photon simulation for particle physics detectors

Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2011-09-10	Add the ability to propagate the same photons multiple times on the	Stan Seibert
	the GPU, and run the DAQ multiple times on the same photons in a likelihood calculation. Propagating the same photons in a warp speeds up propagation by a factor of 3 (and we could do this even better if we wanted), and this improves the statistics in a likelihood evaluation quite a bit. Running the DAQ multiple times is also an inexpensive way to improve the quality of the PDF estimates.

2011-09-03	GPU-based sampling from an arbitrary distribition.	Stan Seibert
	The sample_cdf() device function will draw random numbers from an arbitrary disribution given a cumulative distribution function in the form of a list of x,y points, beginning with y=0 and ending with y=1. For an example of how to convert a ROOT histogram to this form, see the unit test in test_sample_cdf.py
