Cosmological Parameter Inference with Bayesian Statistics

نویسندگان

چکیده

Bayesian statistics and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms have found their place in the field of Cosmology. They become important mathematical numerical tools, especially parameter estimation model comparison. In this paper, we review some fundamental concepts to understand then introduce MCMC samplers that allow us perform inference procedure. We also a general description standard cosmological model, known as $\Lambda$CDM along with several alternatives, current datasets coming from astrophysical observations. Finally, tools acquired, use an algorithm implemented python test models find out combination parameters best describes Universe.

Classical and Bayesian Inference in Two Parameter Exponential Distribution with Randomly Censored Data

Abstract. This paper deals with the classical and Bayesian estimation for two parameter exponential distribution having scale and location parameters with randomly censored data. The censoring time is also assumed to follow a two parameter exponential distribution with different scale but same location parameter. The main stress is on the location parameter in this paper. This parameter has not...

Computational statistics using the Bayesian Inference Engine

This paper introduces the Bayesian Inference Engine (BIE), a general parallel-optimised software package for parameter inference and model selection. This package is motivated by the analysis needs of modern astronomical surveys and the need to organise and reuse expensive derived data. I describe key concepts that illustrate the power of Bayesian inference to address these needs and outline th...

Genus statistics on CMB polarization maps and cosmological parameter degeneracy

We apply genus statistics to simulated CMB polarization maps, constructed from secondary-ionization cosmological models in experimental situations comparable to those of forthcoming space experiments. We find that both the cosmic baryon density and the spectral index of density perturbations are strongly anticorrelated to the reionization redshift. Using the Fisher matrix approach we show that ...

Bayesian Statistics BAYESIAN STATISTICS ∗

Mathematical statistics uses two major paradigms, conventional (or frequentist), and Bayesian. Bayesian methods provide a complete paradigm for both statistical inference and decision making under uncertainty. Bayesian methods may be derived from an axiomatic system, and hence provide a general, coherent methodology. Bayesian methods contain as particular cases many of the more often used frequ...
