Detailed Description

View in nbviewer Open in SWAN 'Number Counting Example' RooStats tutorial macro #100

This tutorial shows an example of a combination of two searches using number counting with background uncertainty.

The macro uses a RooStats "factory" to construct a PDF that represents the two number counting analyses with background uncertainties. The uncertainties are taken into account by considering a sideband measurement of a size that corresponds to the background uncertainty. The problem has been studied in these references:

After using the factory to make the model, we use a RooStats ProfileLikelihoodCalculator for a Hypothesis test and a confidence interval. The calculator takes into account systematics by eliminating nuisance parameters with the profile likelihood. This is equivalent to the method of MINOS.
