Abstract

We present a new, analytic, Poisson likelihood derived, technique to account for the statistical uncertainties inherent in simulation samples of limited size. This method has better coverage properties than other techniques, is valid for small data samples, and maintains good computational performance.<br />Comment: Proceedings of the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2019), Madison, WI, U.S.A
