Reformulation of a likelihood approach to fake-lepton estimation in the\n framework of Bayesian inference Open
Prompt isolated leptons are essential in many analyses in high-energy\nparticle physics but are subject to fake-lepton background, i.e. objects that\nmimic the lepton signature. The fake-lepton background is difficult to estimate\nfrom sim…

A Poisson likelihood approach to fake lepton estimation with the matrix method Open
Many high-energy physics analyses require the presence of leptons from $W$, $Z$, or $H$ boson decay. For these analyses, signatures that mimic such leptons present a `fake lepton' background that must be estimated. Since the magnitude of t…
