abstract

The article reviews the statistical theory of signal detection in application to analysis of deterministic gravitational-wave signals in the noise of a detector. Statistical foundations for the theory of signal detection and parameter estimation are presented. Several tools needed for both theoretical evaluation of the optimal data analysis methods and for their practical implementation are introduced. They include optimal signal-to-noise ratio, Fisher matrix, false alarm and detection probabilities, $\mathcal{F}$-statistic, template placement, and fitting factor. These tools apply to the case of signals buried in a stationary and Gaussian noise. Algorithms to efficiently implement the optimal data analysis techniques are discussed. Formulas are given for a general gravitational-wave signal that includes as special cases most of the deterministic signals of interest.

  1. Impact of numerical-relativity waveform calibration on parametrized post-Einsteinian tests

    gr-qc 2026-03 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    NR late-inspiral calibration systematics in IMRPhenomD produce false ppE GR violations at O5 SNRs ≳60; an uncertainty-aware baseline restores consistency with GR up to SNR 330.

  2. Improved post-Newtonian waveform model for inspiralling precessing-eccentric compact binaries

    gr-qc 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper presents pyEFPE, a validated and publicly available frequency-domain post-Newtonian waveform model for inspiralling precessing-eccentric compact binaries, with up to about a fifteen-fold speedup.

  3. Probing dark matter halo profiles with multi-band observations of gravitational waves

    gr-qc 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Fisher-matrix forecast shows that the proposed deci-Hz space detector GWSat would constrain dark matter spike density and slope around intermediate-mass ratio inspirals to sub-percent accuracy, while third-generatio...

  4. Eccentricity-Modulated Phase Degeneracy and Distinguishability between Dark Matter and Accretion Disk Environmental Effects in EMRIs

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5 of 10

    DM dephasing in EMRIs is nearly eccentricity-independent while disk dephasing is strongly suppressed by e0, so residual SNR and distinguishability time favor slightly eccentric orbits for LISA separation of the two effects.
