Welcome to the 2010 Terascale Statistics Tools school :-)
The school aims at providing education for the most relevant statistics related tasks, problems and methods for physics data analysis in the LHC era.
The covered topics are:
- General introduction: probabilities, basic distributions
- Parameter estimation, likelihood fits
- Llmit determination
- Data unfolding
- Multivariate analysis techniques for optimal
signal/background separation
- Systematic uncertainties and their evaluation
The rich programme sessions consist of minilectures interleaved with "hands on" practical work (paper, computer exercises and/or tutorials). A special highlight talk completes the programme.
The physical well-being of the participants will be also taken care of - by coffee breaks, a welcome reception and a dinner.
Please take note:
- The school fee is 30 Euro: This includes all nutrition costs (cookies, coffee, welcome reception school dinner, etc.)
- Accomodation: Please book yourself a room! A convenient choice is the DESY Hostel for which you can make reservations at http://guest-services.desy.de/hostel_in_hamburg (to increase your chances you can enter in the registration form the additional text: Keyword Statistics2010)
