Resources
With this page I hope to share some of the free resources I've gathered for statistics and informatics applied to astronomy.
Statistics
- Introduction to Probability, Statistics, and Random Processes by Hossein Pishro-Nik.
- Probability and Statistical Inference by Hogg, Tanis, Zimmerman.
- Seeing Theory. A visual introduction to probability and statistics.
Programing
- Software Carpentry Lessons. Lessons on Bash, Git, Python and SQL.
- Data Carpentry. Foundations of Astronomical Data Science.
- Cisco Networking Academy. Lessons on C/C++, data analysis and much more.
- freeCodeCamp. Lessons on machine learning and much more.
Miscellaneous
- Astrostatistics and Machine Learning class for the MSc degree in Astrophysics at the University of Milan-Bicocca by Davide Gerosa. This couse includes both statistics and programming applied to astronomy. Can be a bit daunting for a beginner.
- Astrophysics glossary.
- Astronomy as a Field: A Guide for Aspiring Astrophysicists.
