摘要: Statistical veto methods are commonly used to reduce the list of candidate gravitational wave (GW) events which detected as transient (burst) signals in main output GW detectors. If a burst event channel is coincident with an (where does not contain any signal), it possible from low 'false-veto' rate. Unfortunately, many promising channels interferometer can, at some level, traces signal. In this case, application 'standard statistical veto' could have high false-veto We will present extension standard method that includes 'amplitude consistency check'. This allows vetoes derived containing information By applying amplitude check data GEO 600 detector, efficiencies between 5 and 20%, together use-percentage up 80%, were obtained. The robustness was also confirmed by hardware injections. triggers generated using mHACR detection algorithm.
