Parameters
thrParA TVector2 defining two parameters: pointThreshold and signalThreshold. Both numbers define the number of sigmas over the baseline fluctuation, stored in fBaseLineSigma. The first parameter, pointThreshold, serves to identify if a single point is over threshold by satisfying the condition that is above the baseline by the number of sigmas given in pointThreshold. Once a certain number of consecutive points have been identified, the parameter signalThreshold will serve to reject the signals (consecutive points over threshold) that their standard deviation is lower that signalThreshold times the baseline fluctuation.
nPointsOverOnly data points with at least nPointsOver consecutive points will be considered.
nPointsFlatIt will serve to terminate the points over threshold identification in signals where we find an overshoot, being the baseline not returning to zero (or its original value) at the signal tail.
