  1. Nonparametric analysis of CMB Nonparametric analysis of CMB power spectrum data and consistency power spectrum data and consistency test of cosmological models test of cosmological models Amir Aghamousa Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics, Pohang, South Korea 2nd APCTP-TUS workshop on Dark Energy August 03 ~ 05, 2015, Tokyo University of Science Bull pictures courtesy of “Pablo Picasso” All models are false, some are useful. (George E. P. Box)

  2. I will talk about: ● Model-independent estimation of CMB angular power spectrum (with Arman Shafieloo, Mihir Arjunwadkar, Tarun Souradeep). ● Nonparametric test of consistency between cosmological models and CMB data (with Arman Shafieloo).

  3. Model-independent estimation of CMB angular power spectrum

  4. Timeline of the Universe

  5. CMB Anisotropies and the Power Spectrum

  6. WMAP 1/3/5/7: Power Spectrum Data

  7. Regression Problems Data:

  8. Parametric regression

  9. Frequentist vs Bayesian Frequentist ● It defjnes a probability as the limit of its relative frequency in a large number of trials. Bayesian ● likelihood prior It defjnes a probability as a degree of belief. posterior How to sample a high dimensional probability distribution?

  10. REACT: nonparametric regression

  11. Planck: Power Spectrum Data (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, Arjunwadkar and Souradeep, JCAP, 2015)

  12. Planck 2013 power spectrum estimation (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, Arjunwadkar and Souradeep, JCAP, 2015)

  13. Confidence set in Function space = 95% = Nonparametric fit

  14. Picks and dips (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, Arjunwadkar and Souradeep, JCAP, 2015)

  15. Other results (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, Arjunwadkar and Souradeep, JCAP, 2015)

  16. Nonparametric test of consistency between cosmological models and CMB data

  17. Validating Cosmological Models Parametric fit = 95 % = = ? % = Nonparametric fit Best fit LCDM at 36%

  18. Calibrating Confidence distances = 95% = = 95% = Nonparametric fit

  19. Calibrating Confidence distances (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, JCAP, 2015)

  20. Bias control Best fit LCDM at 95% (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, JCAP, 2015)

  21. Bias control Best fit LCDM at 70% (Aghamousa, Shafieloo, JCAP, 2015)

  22. Thank you
