Elena Sellentin, Alan F. Heavens
Parameter inference with an estimated covariance matrix systematically loses information due to the remaining uncertainty of the covariance matrix. Here, we quantify this loss of p…

Optimizing parameter constraints: a new tool for Fisher matrix forecasts
L. Amendola, E. Sellentin
In a Bayesian context, theoretical parameters are correlated random variables. Then, the constraints on one parameter can be improved by either measuring this parameter more precis…
