  1. Poisson analysis was performed on the described dataset 100 times using 10, 100, or 1000 random samples. The mean of the cumulative probabilities is reported with two standard deviations. The original SGL contained 8 matches (first column); the additional columns were generated using a synthetic SGL modified to contain the specified number of matches.
