Abstract
The GENIE neutrino Monte Carlo event generator seeks to model neutrino interactions for all probes and targets across the entire kinematic phase space relevant for neutrino experiments. The lack of a complete theory to model all neutrino scattering processes forces neutrino event generators to rely on empirical models to simulate exclusive final states for neutrino scattering off nucleon and nuclei. These models need to be tuned to data in order to provide a better description and uncertainties for systematic analyses. This thesis focuses on the development of GENIE global analysis of neutrino scattering data, the tuning of simulations and the data-driven characterization of simulation uncertainties.
