confidence_interval_bs#

Profiler.confidence_interval_bs(param, precision=1e-05)#

Compute the confidence interval for a given parameter. A binary search method is used to progressively narrow down the interval based on the likelihood and the desired confidence level. Uses the same logic as the test_profile_likelihood method.

Parameters:
  • param (str) – Name of the parameter.

  • precision (float, optional) – Precision for the confidence interval calculation, by default 1e-5.

Returns:

A tuple containing the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval.

Return type:

tuple
