Fisher-estimated constraints on the EdGB gravity model from GW151226-like and GW170608-like signals. The lower part shows the case when all the parameters are unconstrained, while the upper part takes into account the prior information that |$\chi_1$| and |$\chi_2$| must necessarily be smaller than unity. The measurement accuracy of the symmetric mass ratio and the correlation coefficient between |$\eta$| and |$\sqrt{\alpha_{\rm EdGB}}$| are also shown.
