Challenges of Profile Likelihood Evaluation in Multi-Dimensional SUSY Scans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Statistical inference of the fundamental parameters of supersymmetric theories is a challenging and active endeavor. Several sophisticated algorithms have been employed to this end. While Markov-Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and nested sampling techniques are

Improved limits on solar axions and bosonic dark matter from the CDEX-1B experiment using the profile likelihood ratio method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We present the improved constraints on couplings of solar axions and more generic bosonic dark matter particles using 737.1 kg days of data from the CDEX-1B experiment.

Multiplicative-Binomial Distribution: Some Results on Characterization, Inference and Random Data Generation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2013
Multiplicative-binomial distribution is one of the distributions that allows for over-dispersion and under-dispersion relative to the standard binomial distribution.

How to use χ2 test correctly——the likelihood ratio test and the implementation of SAS software

open access: yesSichuan jingshen weisheng, 2021
The purpose of this article was to introduce the likelihood ratio test and the SAS implementation. Specifically, three definitions of the likelihood ratio test statistics and six more commonly used likelihood ratio test statistics were introduced.

An Automated Profile-Likelihood-Based Algorithm for Fast Computation of the Maximum Likelihood Estimate in a Statistical Model for Crash Data

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2022
Numerical computation of maximum likelihood estimates (MLE) is one of the most common problems encountered in applied statistics. Even if there exist many algorithms considered as performing, they can suffer in some cases for one or many of the following

A Coverage Study of the CMSSM Based on ATLAS Sensitivity Using Fast Neural Networks Techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We assess the coverage properties of confidence and credible intervals on the CMSSM parameter space inferred from a Bayesian posterior and the profile likelihood based on an ATLAS sensitivity study.

On Birnbaum-Saunders Inference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The Birnbaum-Saunders distribution, also known as the fatigue-life distribution, is frequently used in reliability studies. We obtain adjustments to the Birnbaum--Saunders profile likelihood function. The modified versions of the likelihood function were

Improved EDELWEISS-III sensitivity for low-mass WIMPs using a profile likelihood approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report on a dark matter search for a Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) in the mass range $$m_{\chi } \in [4, 30]\,\mathrm{GeV/}c^2$$mχ∈[4,30]GeV/c2 with the EDELWEISS-III experiment.

On the estimation of the structure parameter of a normal distribution of order p

open access: yesStatistica, 2007
In this paper we compare four different approaches to estimate the structure parameter of a normal distribution of order p (often called exponential power distribution).
