Modern statistical methods for astronomy : with R applications / Eric D. Feigelson, G. Jogesh Babu. - - Cambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2014. - xviii, 476 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 26 cm.
Index : p. 462-476. First published 2012.
Bibliography : p. 434-461.
"Modern astronomical research is beset with a vast range of statistical challenges, ranging from reducing data from megadatasets to characterizing an amazing variety of variable celestial objects or testing astrophysical theory. Yet most astronomers still use a narrow suite of traditional statistical methods. Linking astronomy to the world of modern statistics, this volume is a unique resource, introducing astronomers to advanced statistics through ready-to-use code in the public-domain R statistical software environment"--
