IFML Seminar: 02/13/26 - COWS and Their Hybrids: Customized Orthogonal Weights
Abstract: Particle physicists developed an algorithm called COWs (Customized Orthogonal Weights) for separating signals from backgrounds in certain experiments. We look at COWs from a statistical perspective. Then we consider several extensions of the...
