Astrostatistics

Modern astronomers encounter a range of challenging statistical problems, yet few are familiar with the wealth of techniques developed by statisticians. Conversely, few statisticians deal with the problems confronted in astronomy. Astrostatistics bridges this gap. It provides professionals and advanced students in both fields with exposure to issues of mutual interest. The authors introduce statisticians to stellar, galactic, and cosmological astronomy and discuss the complex character of astronomical data. For astronomers, they introduce the statistical principles of nonparametrics, multivariate analysis, time series analysis, density estimation, and resampling methods.
