1 Fall Analyss of Expermental Measurements B. Esensten/rev. S. Erree Hypothess Testng, Lkelhoo Functons an Parameter Estmaton: We conser estmaton of (one or more parameters to be the expermental etermnaton (aka measurement of those parameters (whch are assume to have fxe, but apror unknown values, an whch s base on a lmte/fnte number of expermental observatons. We have alreay encountere the sample mean, x x, as an estmator of x ˆ. ow we wll be more general But before we get nto a full-scale stuy of estmaton, we begn by lookng at Hypothess Testng usng Lkelhoo Ratos. Suppose t s known that ether Hypothess A or Hypothess B s true. An suppose further f x, whle that f A s true, then the ranom varable x s apror known to have a P.D.F. A f B s true, then the ranom varable x s apror known to have a fferent P.D.F. fb ( x. Suppose that we carry out nepenent measurements of a ranom varable x: x,x,, x : If A s true, the probablty that the results are x,x,, x s: PA( x, x,, x f A( x x f A( x x f A( x x f A( x x On the other han, f B ha nstea been true, the probablty of the same strng of results woul have been: PB( x, x,, x fb( x x fb( x x fb( x x fb( x x The Lkelhoo Rato R s efne as: In other wors, the Lkelhoo Rato R s: (,,, (,,, P x x x R P x x x A B f x x A f x x B {The probablty that the partcular expermental result of measurements turne out the way that t, assumng A s true} {The probablty that the partcular expermental result of measurements turne out the way that t, assumng B s true}. In effect, the Lkelhoo Rato R s the bettng os of A aganst B,.e. we assgn probabltes to A an B proportonal to ther Lkelhoos : A A A B PB x x x fb x x L P ( x, x,, x f ( x x an L (,,, Thus, the Lkelhoo Rato s: (,,, (,,, L P x x x R L A A B PB x x x f x x A f x x B n.b. L A an L B are numbers whch wll change (slghtly, e.g. f the entre experment s repeate hence they are ranom varables but they are not ranom strbutons of any kn. P598AEM Lecture otes

For example, n the weak ecays of ve muons ( μ e ve v μ whose spns s μ are fully (.e. % polarze (.e. algne along the ẑ axs {the flght recton of the μ n the lab frame}, the ecay postrons are emtte wth a (normalze polar angle strbuton n the μ center of mass frame: ( cosθ P cosθ ( α cosθ s μ ẑ μ θ e Here, P cosθ αcosθ cosθ s the (nfntesmal probablty that the ecay e s emtte at angle θ whose cosne s wthn the (nfntesmal range cosθ cosθ cosθ. If the muons are % spn-polarze, then the asymmetry parameter α s a number that epens on how Party (space nverson symmetry, {here, θ θ } s volate (along wth Charge Conjugaton,.e. μ μ n the weak ecays of the muon.

If we efne x cosθ, then the P.D.F. becomes f ( x, α ( α x an the Lkelhoo s: A ( α f ( x, α L L. As before, we wll thnk n terms of the Lkelhoo Rato ( α ( α Lkelhoo { probablty that α m s true of L ( α m }. ext, we plot ( α R L L an assgn a L vs. α : L ( α L ( α -OR- Δ α α α The Most Probable Value of α, α s calle the Maxmum Lkelhoo Soluton. α α The Root Mean Square (RMS Sprea the square root of the varance of α aroun α s a measure of the accuracy wth whch Δα α. α s etermne, call t If s large, then L ( α wll be a Gaussan (ue to/because of the Central Lmt Theorem. But f s small, then we may have a stuaton lke the one epcte on the LHS of the above fgure. In that case, Δ α has no real meanng an shoul not be quote. Instea, the plot shoul be shown. P598AEM Lecture otes 3
4 Fall Analyss of Expermental Measurements B. Esensten/rev. S. Erree ow let us be very careful... If we nterpret L ( α as a measure of the probablty of α, then we must make certan that t s properly normalze. Thus, we calculate ( α α L an replace L ( α by L ( α. Then we know that: L ( α α ( L L ( α α α α α α Δα α E[( α α ] or: Δ α α ( L L ( α α α α α α Ths approach to etermnng parameters (such as α an ther uncertantes α s calle the Maxmum Lkelhoo Metho (M.L.M. A Detale Example of the Use of the M.L.M. : Suppose we are tryng to rectly measure a physcal parameter α. Let each measurement be calle x, an let be the stanar evaton assocate wth each nvual measurement x. Let us further assume that the nepenent nvual measurements ( x are Gaussanstrbute, wth x ˆ α as ther expectaton value. ( x Then for any nvual measurement:, α f x α e π ( x Thus, for nepenent measurements: α L α e π n.b. Here, we have use the parameter α nstea of α, snce we are tryng to fn/etermne α (whch s apror unknown. It s by varyng α (as a free parameter that we fn / etermne / measure the partcular value, α that maxmzes the lkelhoo functon L ( α. α (whch we entfy wth ote further that we also use the shorthan L ( α nstea of the more correct ( α x x ;,, L. We wll carry out the maxmzaton of the Lkelhoo functon explctly,.e. we wll fn L ( α α an then look for a zero corresponng to a maxmum n L ( α. ln α L α. Defne: ote also that n practce, we maxmze L, the log lkelhoo nstea of ( xα ln e π ( x α ln π ( α ( α P598AEM Lecture otes 4
5 Fall Analyss of Expermental Measurements B. Esensten/rev. S. Erree ote that f α L has a maxmum at some α α maxmum at the same value of α. Thus: Then: ( α, then ( α ln ( α ( x α ( α ( α constant ( α x α α ( α α α ( α α an solve: α An: Fnally, set: x α x α α L wll also have a x α Snce ths s <, the extremum s a maxmum α α Thus we see that the Maxmum Lkelhoo value of the parameter α s just a Weghte Mean. ote that f all of the nvual measurements x ha the same varances x, the above expresson woul reuce to the smple/arthmetc/unweghte sample mean: α x So we recover a result that we shoul have antcpate, an see how to use M.L.M. n the smplest case. But has ths elegant proceure gven us anythng new? In orer to unerstan ths, we now step back an look n general at estmaton. For smplcty, let us conser experments where we perform a sngle measurement x k, n each, an where we are tryng to etermne (.e. estmate a common sngle parameter. Later, when we look at practcal schemes, we wll scuss the case(s of several measurements per experment, an also the smultaneous etermnaton of several parameters. After we have mae nepenent measurements of a ranom varable x: x,,x, we construct a functon S(x,, x whose numercal value s the estmate of the apror unknown parameter of nterest (e.g. xˆ, x,... Thus the estmator S cannot epen on. The numercal value of the functon S ( the estmator s tself a ranom varable. For example, f we wante to estmate the expectaton value of x, E[ x] xˆ for a set of ( xxˆ Gaussan-strbute measurements (whose P.D.F. s e, all wth the same π stanar evaton we coul use e.g. the sample mean: Sx (,, x x x P598AEM Lecture otes 5

That s, ES [ ] may n fact not be, the true value of the parameter. We efne the Bas B ( as the fference between E[ S ] an : B( E[ S] A goo estmator S wll be unbase,.e. have B E[ S]. Another mportant property of the estmator S s ts own varance, S. It s obvously hghly esrable to nvent estmators wth S as small as possble. Can S be arbtrarly small? (ans: o! It s not obvous (an n general not true! that one can fn an estmator S wth both mnmum bas an mnmum varance. For now, we wll eal only wth unbase estmators, but later on, we wll look at the base kn. For now, we focus on/concern ourselves wth possble bas ssues assocate wth varance: Let f ( ; x be the P.D.F. assocate wth the measurement of x. s the parameter we wsh to etermne by carryng out a seres of nepenent expermental measurements x,,x. The jont P.D.F. of ths seres s f ( x, x,, x ; f ( x ; f ( x ; f ( x ; prove that the nvual measurements of x are nepenent. Let S(x,, x be an unbase estmator of,.e. ES [ ]. E S S x x x f x f x f x xx x Then: [ ] (,,, ( ; ( ; ( ; We now go through a seres of manpulatons n orer to arrve at a result concernng the mnmum varance assocate wth the estmator S. Along the way, we wll also efne a quantty known as nformaton. n.b. In all that follows, we assume all ntegrals are efne, ntegraton an fferentaton commute, etc... So: E[ S] S( x, x,, x f ( x; f ( x; f ( x; xx x Dfferentate both ses of the above relaton wth respect to the parameter : Then let us S( x, x,, x { f ( x ; f ( x ; f ( x ; } xx x Defne: L ( x, x,, x ; f ( x; f ( x ; f ( x ; f ( x ; P598AEM Lecture otes 6
