Multiple underwater target positioning with optimally placed acoustic surface sensor networks by David Moreno-Salinas, Antonio Manuel Pascoal, Joaquín Aranda

“…For each target, the function to be minimized (by proper choice of the sensor configuration) is related to the determinant of the corresponding Fisher information matrix, which yields information on the minimum possible covariance of the error with which the position of the target can be estimated using any non-biased estimator. …”

Distinguishing Compact Objects in Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals by Gravitational Waves by Lujia Xu, Shucheng Yang, Wenbiao Han, Xingyu Zhong, Rundong Tang, Yuanhao Zhang

“…We evaluate the accuracy of parameter estimation for these simulated waveforms using the Fisher Information Matrix (FIM) and find that the spin, tidal-induced quadruple, and spin-induced quadruple can all be measured with precision ranging from <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mn>10</mn><mrow><mo>−</mo><mn>2</mn></mrow></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula> to <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mn>10</mn><mrow><mo>−</mo><mn>1</mn></mrow></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula>, particularly for a mass ratio of ∼<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mn>10</mn><mrow><mo>−</mo><mn>4</mn></mrow></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula>. …”
