Sem. 2 (DESY)

Sem. 2

DESY

Hamburg
Claus Kleinwort (DESY), Olaf Behnke (DESY), Stefan Schmitt (DESY)
Description
This is the first workshop on statistical tools in the Terascale alliance. It is devoted to three issues expected to be relevant for data analyses at ATLAS and CMS: 1. Optimal Signal/Background Separation 2. Likelihood fits e.g. for determination of signals and model parameters 3. Limits determination Evo Details see: http://www.terascale.de/research_topics/rt1_physics_analysis/statistics_tools
