Statistical techniques to estimate the SARS-CoV-2 infection fatality rate
Mikael Mieskolainen, Robert Bainbridge, Oliver Buchmueller +2
The determination of the infection fatality rate (IFR) for the novel SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus is a key aim for many of the field studies that are currently being undertaken in respon…
Reproducibility and Replication of Experimental Particle Physics Results
Thomas R. Junk, Louis Lyons
Recently, much attention has been focused on the replicability of scientific results, causing scientists, statisticians, and journal editors to examine closely their methodologies…
PHYSTAT at CERN (January 2019)
Louis Lyons
A short overview is provided of the recent PHYSTAT meeting at CERN, which dealt with statistical issues relevant for neutrino experiments.
A Paradox about Likelihood Ratios?
Louis Lyons
We consider whether the asymptotic distributions for the log-likelihood ratio test statistic are expected to be Gaussian or chi-squared. Two straightforward examples provide insigh…
Practical Statistics
L. Lyons
Accelerators and detectors are expensive, both in terms of money and human effort. It is thus important to invest effort in performing a good statistical analysis of the data, in o…
