Bayesian methods for cosmological parameter estimation from cosmic microwave background measurements
Open accessAbstract
We present a strategy for a statistically rigorous Bayesian approach to the problem of determining cosmological parameters from the results of observations of anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background. Our strategy relies on Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, specifically the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, to perform the necessary high-dimensional integrals. We describe the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm in detail and discuss the results of our test on simulated data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
