Nov 1, 2025November 2025 (KIT-CMS/CROWN): Delivered robustness improvements for B-tagging score handling to ensure cleaner weight evaluation and more reliable scale-factor calculations. Implemented guards to ignore NaN b-tagging scores when evaluating weights and to skip -1 ParticleNet scores in scale-factor calculations, preventing data contamination. These changes improve data integrity, reduce bias in downstream analyses, and enhance reproducibility across runs. Commit traceability is maintained through explicit references to the fixes.

Aug 1, 2025August 2025 monthly summary for KIT-CMS/CROWN: Delivered several consequential features and a critical bug fix that improve data processing, traceability, and physics results, while strengthening code quality and maintainability. Key outcomes: implemented a versatile Take utility to extract values by indices from quantity columns using ROOT::VecOps::Take, preserving order; added DrellYanDecayFlavor function to determine DY decay flavor at LHE level and reorganized its namespace; fixed Jet Energy Resolution scale factor propagation to ensure correct SF in Run 2 and Run 3; enhanced logging for JER/JES to clearly distinguish shifts; introduced a Size function for ROOT DataFrame to compute vector sizes with an inline-optimized path; improved Tau ID SF evaluation by excluding decay mode 2, extending eta ranges for Id_vsMu and Run 3 muon coverage; clarified documentation for Negate function. These changes collectively improve data extraction efficiency, traceability of energy-scale corrections, accuracy of DY flavor classification, and overall maintainability.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 — KIT-CMS/CROWN: Delivered a targeted enhancement to the CMake build system to improve C++ addon source discovery. This work enables addons to reside under a cpp_addons subfolder, collects all .cxx sources recursively, consolidates glob patterns for source collection, and broadens the glob to include all .cxx files in any subdirectory under src. These changes reduce manual maintenance, improve addon management, and increase resilience to folder structure changes. No major bugs reported for this repository this month. Overall impact: strengthens build reliability, accelerates addon onboarding, and reduces maintenance overhead for future addon growth. Technologies/skills demonstrated: CMake scripting and build-system modernization, C/C++ addon integration, source-discovery patterns, and version-control hygiene through clear, well-documented commits.
