RooStats::HypoTestResult Class Reference

HypoTestResult is a base class for results from hypothesis tests.

Any tool inheriting from HypoTestCalculator can return a HypoTestResult. As such, it stores a p-value for the null-hypothesis (eg. background-only) and an alternate hypothesis (eg. signal+background). The p-values can also be transformed into confidence levels ( \(CL_{b}\), \(CL_{s+b}\)) in a trivial way. The ratio of the \(CL_{s+b}\) to \(CL_{b}\) is often called \(CL_{s}\), and is considered useful, though it is not a probability. Finally, the p-value of the null can be transformed into a number of equivalent Gaussian sigma using the Significance method.

The p-value of the null for a given test statistic is rigorously defined and this is the starting point for the following conventions.

Conventions used in this class

The p-value for the null and alternate are on the same side of the observed value of the test statistic. This is the more standard convention and avoids confusion when doing inverted tests.

For exclusion, we also want the formula \(CL_{s} = CL_{s+b} / CL_{b}\) to hold which therefore defines our conventions for \(CL_{s+b}\) and \(CL_{b}\). \(CL_{s}\) was specifically invented for exclusion and therefore all quantities need be related through the assignments as they are for exclusion: \(CL_{s+b} = p_{s+b}\); \(CL_{b} = p_{b}\). This is derived by considering the scenarios of a powerful and not powerful inverted test, where for the not so powerful test, \(CL_{s}\) must be close to one.

For results of Hypothesis tests, \(CL_{s}\) has no similar direct interpretation as for exclusion and can be larger than one.
