Machine-learned exclusion limits without binning

Abstract Machine-learned likelihoods (MLL) combines machine-learning classification techniques with likelihood-based inference tests to estimate the experimental sensitivity of high-dimensional data sets. We extend the MLL method by including kernel density estimators (KDE) to avoid binning the clas...
