Clustering algorithm
EM free likelihood distribution exampleThe EM algorithm is a clustering algorithm
that analytically maximizes the likelihood
We assume that source events follow a Gaussian distribution
The width of this Gaussian includes the dependence of on the angular resolution of the detector:
In the “free sigma case” the width can change during the maximization process between
reasonable values. Remind that both sigmas are keep as independent parameters.
In the “fixed sigma case” the width do not change and keeps the value extracted from the mc

Clusters from candidate list search
Number of events fitted by the algorithm: 3.32Likelihood ratio value: 4.32P-value: 0.0074 x 24 ~ 17.8% probability (< 1.5)Gaussian width: sx = 1.10º , sy = 0.5º
The gaussian is wider in the RA plane. Sigma parameters (X,Y) are
independent
