Statistical methods for cosmological parameter selection and estimation
The estimation of cosmological parameters from precision observables is an important industry with crucial ramifications for particle physics. This article discusses the statistical methods presently used in cosmological data analysis, highlighting the main assumptions and uncertainties. The topics covered are parameter estimation, model selection, multi-model inference, and experimental design...
متن کاملFast cosmological parameter estimation using neural networks
We present a method for accelerating the calculation of CMB power spectra, matter power spectra and likelihood functions for use in cosmological parameter estimation. The algorithm, called COSMONET, is based on training a multilayer perceptron neural network and shares all the advantages of the recently released PICO algorithm of Fendt & Wandelt, but has several additional benefits in terms of ...
متن کاملExperimental methods and parameter estimation
The experiment was done in a lemon grove on the high school farm in Fillmore, Ventura County, California. The grove is managed using IPM methods and is under successful biological control for California red scale. Lorzban is sprayed annually on the ground for ant control but the area we sampled was not sprayed during our experiment. No other pesticides or oil treatments are used. Aphytis melinu...
متن کاملBayesian Methods of Parameter Estimation
The frequentest approach is the classical approach to parameter estimation. It assumes that there is an unknown but objectively fixed parameter θ [3]. It chooses the value of θ which maximizes the likelihood of observed data [4], in other words, making the available data as likely as possible. A common example is the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE). The frequentest approach is statistically ...
متن کاملEffects of CMB temperature uncertainties on cosmological parameter estimation
We estimate the effect of the experimental uncertainty in the measurement of the temperature of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) on the extraction of cosmological parameters from future CMB surveys. We find that even for an ideal experiment limited only by cosmic variance up to l = 2500 for both the temperature and polarisation measurements, the projected cosmological parameter errors are ...
