I forgot to add probably the most important. James is correct, the expected value of u, the true mean, given a single observation k is indeed k+1 and k+1 is also the mean square error of using k+1 as the estimator of the true mean. Cheers, Filipe On Wed, 13 Oct 2021 at 23:17, Filipe Maia wrote:

Hi, The maximum likelihood estimator for a Poisson distributed variable is equal to the mean of the observations. In the case of a single observation, it will be equal to that observation. As Graeme suggested, you can calculate the probability mass function for a given observation with different P

This rang a bell to me last night, and I think you can derive this from first principles If you assume an observation of N counts, you can calculate the probability of such an observation for a given Poisson rate constant X. If you then integrate over all possible value of X to work out the cen

Hi Ian, James, I have a strong feeling that I have seen this result before, and it was due to Andy Hammersley at ESRF. I’ve done a literature search and there is a paper relating to errors in analysis of counting statistics (se below), but I had a quick look at this and co
