Yousuke Itoh AEI @ GWDAW8 UW Milwaukee USA 17-20 December 2003 Basic Idea(1) The detection statistic: Jaranowski et al. Phys.Rev.D58:063001,1998 If the data=random Gaussian noise (r.g.n)  ( distribution) If data=r.g.n + signal  (Non-cent. with Non-cent. param.= SNR) Hypothesis: data=rand. Gaussian noise + signal becomes the χ^2 dist. if our reconstruction of the signal is good! Yousuke Itoh AEI @ GWDAW8 UW Milwaukee USA 17-20 December 2003

Yousuke Itoh AEI @ GWDAW8 UW Milwaukee USA 17-20 December 2003 Basic Idea (2) Use the maximum likelihood estimates of the signal parameters. instead of unknown Use the targeting sky position instead of unknown signal sky position If the veto statistic is extremely large, we veto out the outlier. Need to be careful SNR dependent threshold on the veto statistic. (Cf. TAMA inspiral upper limit report) Yousuke Itoh AEI @ GWDAW8 UW Milwaukee USA 17-20 December 2003

Application to Real data Procedure Apply the veto method on 10 h LHO4K S2 real data starting from GPS time 731210229. Compute (~SNR) and the veto statistic for each outlier. 1200 targeting sky positions are randomly chosen. Frequency band is 100-500 Hz. 465.7 Hz line 16 Hz multiples The red line vetos 69 % of the outliers found in this data. Some of the “Arms” are due to lines with particular freqs.

Preliminary! Application to Real data With the line noise table provided by R. Berkowitz, M. Landry, D. Ottaway, R. Schofield Preliminary! Procedure (yet to be examined!) Remove 16 Hz multiples (+-1Hz). Remove the measured lines between 344-350 Hz. 465.7 Hz line 16 Hz multiples Experimentalists veto out some of the arms most efficiently! The red line now vetos 75 % of the outliers found in this data. Yousuke Itoh AEI @ GWDAW8 UW Milwaukee USA 17-20 December 2003

Remarks and Conclusion Our veto method is rather efficient: Even with rough parameters tuning, it is demonstrated for some real data that adopting some threshold on our veto statistic, ~ 69 % of the outliers can be vetoed out. Safety test shows that the same threshold on the veto statistic gives effectively 0% (modulo sample variance) false dismissal rate. We have performed the safety and efficiency tests on the real data and obtained similar results. There are still outliers that we might keep. While studying parameters tuning and making the method more efficient, we study other veto methods and use combinations of various veto methods.

Veto the outliers in FDS Other possible veto strategies not yet studied. (a) Coincidence among other channels: F stat. outliers  characteristic line noises of the instruments. Coincidence analysis among h(t) and other channels. Needs Veto channels selection. (b) Follow up: If true signal, the amplitude of F stat. varies w.r.t. time in a predictable maner (= Doppler amp./phase mod. etc.). Search the signal in the other IFOs, time periods, etc. (c) Coincidence among the IFOs. Consistency check on the MLEs of the strain that the IFOs give us.
