The parameter space of galaxy formation
Semi-analytic models are a powerful tool for studying the formation of galaxies. However, these models inevitably involve a significant number of poorly constrained parameters that must be adjusted to provide an acceptable match to the observed Universe. In this paper, we set out to quantify the degree to which observational data sets can constrain the model parameters. By revealing degeneracie...
متن کاملSingle parameter galaxy classification: The Principal Curve through the multi-dimensional space of galaxy properties
We propose to describe the variety of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) by using only one affine parameter. To this aim, we construct the Principal Curve (P-curve) passing through the spine of the data point cloud, considering the eigenspace derived from Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of morphological, physical and photometric galaxy properties. Thus, galaxies can be labeled...
متن کاملTruncated Linear Minimax Estimator of a Power of the Scale Parameter in a Lower- Bounded Parameter Space
Minimax estimation problems with restricted parameter space reached increasing interest within the last two decades Some authors derived minimax and admissible estimators of bounded parameters under squared error loss and scale invariant squared error loss In some truncated estimation problems the most natural estimator to be considered is the truncated version of a classic...
متن کاملProblem Reduction to Parameter Space
This paper presents a problem reduction scheme that converts geometric constraints in work space to a system of equations in parameter space. We demonstrate that this scheme can solve many interesting geometric problems that have been considered quite di cult to deal with using conventional techniques. An important advantage of our approach is that equations represented in the parameter space h...
متن کاملOn a Six-parameter Generalized Logistic Distribution
Because of their flexibility, much attention has been given to the study of generalized models in recent times. In particular, many authors have investigated the properties of the generalized logistic distribution and its application in analysing bioassay and quantal response data. Recently, Wu Jong-Wuu et al (2000) developed a method which was used to obtain the density function of a five-para...
