  "abstract": "We compare the standard NLO and $\\texttt{MiNLO}$ approaches for the full off-shell $pp \\to t\\bar{t}W^+ + X$ process at the LHC, at both the integrated and differential cross-section levels. Contrary to NLO, in the $\\texttt{MiNLO}$ approach, which is now also available within the HELAC-NLO framework, renormalization and factorization scales are dynamically extracted and Sudakov form factors are incorporated. Results are particularly presented for the $pp \\to t\\bar{t}W^+j$ process at NLO accuracy in perturbative QCD using two different scale choices. Merged predictions up to two jets to improve the overall modeling of the full off-shell $pp \\to t\\bar{t}W^+ + X$ process are also discussed.",
