Bayesian Inference : Data Evaluation and Decisions

Cham : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Springer, 2016
Abstract/Sommario: This new edition offers a comprehensive introduction to the analysis of data using Bayes rule. It generalizes Gaussian error intervals to situations in which the data follow distributions other than Gaussian. This is particularly useful when the observed parameter is barely above the background or the histogram of multiparametric data contains many empty bins, so that the determination of the validity of a theory cannot be based on the chi-squared-criterion. In addition to the solution ...; [leggi tutto]
