Multi-Tree Methods for Statistics on Very Large Datasets in Astronomy
Alexander G. Gray, Andrew W. Moore, Robert C. Nichol +3
Many fundamental statistical methods have become critical tools for scientific data analysis yet do not scale tractably to modern large datasets. This paper will describe very rece…
A Non-parametric Analysis of the CMB Power Spectrum
Christopher J. Miller, Robert C. Nichol, Christopher Genovese +1
We examine Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature power spectra from the BOOMERANG, MAXIMA, and DASI experiments. We non-parametrically estimate the true power spectrum with…
Computational AstroStatistics: Fast and Efficient Tools for Analysing Huge Astronomical Data Sources
R. C. Nichol, S. Chong, A. J. Connolly +10
I present here a review of past and present multi-disciplinary research of the Pittsburgh Computational AstroStatistics (PiCA) group. This group is dedicated to developing fast and…
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…
