This paper, which is taken from the text of the keynote address, concerns the uneasy relationship between Bayesian and frequentist statistics, with particular attention to the “neutrino problem”: how to set confidence limits for a parameter known to be non-negative. Model selection, an object...

متن کاملImmunology for physicists
The immune system is a complex system of cells and molecules that can provide us with a basic defense against pathogenic organisms. Like the nervous system, the immune system performs pattern recognition tasks, learns, and retains a memory of the antigens that it has fought. The immune system contains more than 107 different clones of cells that communicate via cell-cell contact and the secreti...
متن کاملSLE for Theoretical Physicists
