Description

In this talk, I will review the various methods, tools, tricks, and shortcuts used by various dark matter experiments to set upper limits on dark matter interaction cross-section. Focusing on the progression of the methods as the number of parameter increases and the background decreases I will discuss the big question of evolution vs. intelligent design (in the statistical inference realm J).
