Dear all,
I was wondering which is the most effective way to setup a design of experiments (doe) in allpix-squared. Suppose for example I want to explore different bias voltages / thicknesses / beam configurations / etc. Shall I do that using some scripting or there is an allpix-squared tool to do that, please?
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Marco Bomben
Dear Marco @mbomben ,
there is not yet a tool in Allpix Squared to do this for you. There are tools for other frameworks like the corryvreckan jobsub (which was actually adapted from EUTelescope…), which could easily be adapted for Allpix Squared.
The user in me indeed applies simple bash scripts for things like that - here especially the -o
and -g
options (see here) come in very handy.
Cheers
Paul
People have been using snakemake quite successfully, too for this kind of setup. As @pschutze mentioned, with the available command line options of the allpix
executable, (almost) all parameters can be scripted.
Best,
Simon
Thanks a lot @pschutze and @simonspa for the suggestions!
Cheers,
Marco
