Example 3 Frequentist studies

Motivation

These are both toy examples meant only to instruct on statistics, not based on any real data.

Discovering the LEE, rejecting background only hypothesis

Excluding the LEE

Running the code

Similar to example 2, for example 3 to work one must have already successfully ran example 1. To run with Poission sampling only:

./example3 --xml example.xml

To run with sampling from the calculated covariance matrix:

./example3 --xml example.xml --covariance

Note: Sampling from the covariance matrix was added from a forked branch just yesterday and testing is underway to ensure everything is working, so treat this as preliminary functionality at the moment.

Expected outputs

(this is representative, not necessarily 100% identical)
