They are for ensuring more accurate stream info detection.

Some containers, esp. MPEG-2 transport streams like ts, m2ts, and mts, have a very tiny packet size, and therefore are more prone to stream probe failure.

In those cases, ffmpeg yields the following error message and comes up with the -analyzeduration and -probesize options.

Code:
Could not find codec parameters for stream 0: unknown codec
Consider increasing the value for the 'analyzeduration' and 'probesize' options
