Maximum confidence quantum measurements.
We consider the problem of discriminating between states of a specified set with maximum confidence. For a set of linearly independent states unambiguous discrimination is possible if we allow for the possibility of an inconclusive result. For linearly dependent sets an analogous measurement is one which allows us to be as confident as possible that when a given state is identified on the basis...

متن کاملConsistent Confidence Intervals for Maximum Pseudolikelihood Estimators
Maximum pseudolikelihood estimation (MPLE) constitutes a computationally efficient and easily implemented alternative to maximum likelihood and simulationbased methods. The MPLE has been shown to be consistent and asymptotically normally distributed in a number of interesting cases. However, the coverage probability of the conventional confidence interval for the MPLE is biased downward. We pro...
متن کاملPlacing Confidence Limits on Polarization Measurements
The determination of the true source polarization given a set of measurements is complicated by the requirement that the polarization always be positive. This positive bias also hinders construction of upper limits, uncertainties, and confidence regions, especially at low signal-to-noise levels. We generate the likelihood function for linear polarization measurements and use it to create confid...
