Statistical Learning Methods in High-Energy- and Astrophysics
C. Kiesling, Jens Zimmermann · 2005
We discuss several popular statistical learning methods used in high-energy physics and astrophysics analysis. After a short motivation for statistical learning we present the most popular algorithms and discuss several examples from current research in particle- and astrophysics. The statistical learning methods are compared with each other and with standard methods for the respective application.
