Characterizing the Conditional Galaxy Property Distribution Using Gaussian Mixture Models
Line-intensity mapping (LIM) is a promising technique to constrain the global distribution of galaxy properties. To combine LIM experiments probing different tracers with traditional galaxy surveys and fully exploit the scientific potential of these ...

The Origin of the Solar Flare Waiting-Time Distribution
It was recently pointed out that the distribution of times between solar flares (the flare waiting-time distribution) follows a power law, for long waiting times.

Abstract We propose a simple, statistically principled, and theoretically justified method to improve supervised learning when the training set is not representative, a situation known as covariate shift. We build upon a well‐established methodology in causal inference and show that the effects of covariate shift can be reduced or eliminated by ...

Bayesian inference: more than Bayes’s theorem
Bayesian inference gets its name from Bayes’s theorem, expressing posterior probabilities for hypotheses about a data generating process as the (normalized) product of prior probabilities and a likelihood function.

Bayesian Functional Data Analysis in Astronomy
Cosmic demographics—the statistical study of populations of astrophysical objects—has long relied on tools from multivariate statistics for analyzing data comprising fixed-length vectors of properties of objects, as might be compiled in a tabular ...

The changing landscape of astrostatistics and astroinformatics [PDF]
AbstractThe history and current status of the cross-disciplinary fields of astrostatistics and astroinformatics are reviewed. Astronomers need a wide range of statistical methods for both data reduction and science analysis. With the proliferation of high-throughput telescopes, efficient large scale computational methods are also becoming essential ...
