We analyzed the 7 hours of continuous data from TAMA300 by using the matche
d filtering, searching for the gravitational waves from inspiraling compact
binaries. For future long-term continuous operation, it is necessary to re
duce the computation time. For this purpose, we introduced hierarchical sea
rch strategy. We also introduced a chi(2)-test to avoid the loss of signal
due to the non-Gaussian property of noise. In this paper, we report the res
ults from our preliminary analysis.
