Fast Algorithms and Efficient Statistics: N-point Correlation Functions
Andrew Moore, Andy Connolly, Chris Genovese +8
We present here a new algorithm for the fast computation of N-point correlation functions in large astronomical data sets. The algorithm is based on kdtrees which are decorated wit…
SDSS-RASS: Next Generation of Cluster-Finding Algorithms
R. Nichol, C. Miller, A. Connolly +17
We outline here the next generation of cluster-finding algorithms. We show how advances in Computer Science and Statistics have helped develop robust, fast algorithms for finding c…
Fast Algorithms and Efficient Statistics: Density Estimation in Large Astronomical Datasets
A. J. Connolly, C. Genovese, A. W. Moore +3
In this paper, we outline the use of Mixture Models in density estimation of large astronomical databases. This method of density estimation has been known in Statistics for some t…
Computational AstroStatistics: Fast Algorithms and Efficient Statistics for Density Estimation in Large Astronomical Datasets
R. C. Nichol, A. J. Connolly, A. W. Moore +3
We present initial results on the use of Mixture Models for density estimation in large astronomical databases. We provide herein both the theoretical and experimental background f…
