On Statistical Significance of Signal
نویسنده
چکیده
A definition for the statistical significance of a signal in an experiment is proposed by establishing a correlation between the observed p-value and the normal distribution integral probability, which is suitable for both counting experiment and continuous test statistics. The explicit expressions to calculate the statistical significance for both cases are given.

Cardiovascular diseases are the most dangerous diseases and one of the biggest causes of fatality all over the world. One of the most common cardiac arrhythmias which has been considered by physicians is premature ventricular contraction (PVC) arrhythmia. Detecting this type of arrhythmia due to its abundance of all ages, is particularly important. ECG signal recording is a non-invasive, popula...
متن کاملOn influence of experimental resolution on the statistical significance of a signal: implication for pentaquark searches
An analytical relationship between the statistical significance of an observed signal and the signal width in case of a large background was obtained. It can help to explain why high-energy experiments may have different conclusions on the existence of new particles. We illustrate our approach using the experimental data on searches for the Θ(1530) pentaquark state. The obtained relationship is...
