6. Test statistics
... The test statistic used for detection is a special case of a function of random variables. ... Important examples of the test statistics are signal variances . ... Usually, the test statistics S in TSA measure a ratio of two variances. ... Since models depend on frequency (or time lag l ), so do the variances and and test statistics S . The statistics we recommend for use in the frequency domain are the ones introduced by Scargle and the Analysis of Variance (AOV) statistics. ...
7. Bias-Free Parameter Estimation with Few Counts, by Iterative Chi-Squared
... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...
