Tools for maximum likelihood fits to single trigger statistic values
For some set of values above a threshold, e.g. trigger SNRs, the functions
in this module perform maximum likelihood fits with 1-sigma uncertainties
to various simple functional forms of PDF, all normalized to 1.
You can also obtain the fitted function and its (inverse) CDF and perform
a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.
Usage:
# call the fit function directly if the threshold is known
alpha, sigma_alpha = fit_exponential(snrs, 5.5)
# apply a threshold explicitly
alpha, sigma_alpha = fit_above_thresh('exponential', snrs, thresh=6.25)
# let the code work out the threshold from the smallest value via the default thresh=None
alpha, sigma_alpha = fit_above_thresh('exponential', snrs)
# or only fit the largest N values, i.e. tail fitting
thresh = tail_threshold(snrs, N=500)
alpha, sigma_alpha = fit_above_thresh('exponential', snrs, thresh)
# obtain the fitted function directly
xvals = numpy.xrange(5.5, 10.5, 20)
exponential_fit = expfit(xvals, alpha, thresh)
# or access function by name
exponential_fit_1 = fit_fn('exponential', xvals, alpha, thresh)
# get the KS test statistic and p-value - see scipy.stats.kstest
ks_stat, ks_pval = KS_test('exponential', snrs, alpha, thresh)
