Richardson and Green present a method of performing a Bayesian analysis of data from a finite mixture distribution with an unknown number of components. Their method is a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach, which makes use of the “reversible jump” methodology described by Green. We describe an alternative MCMC method which views the parameters of the model as a (marked) point process, ext...

A class of improved estimators is proposed for N-point correlation functions of galaxy clustering, and for discrete spatial random processes in general. In the limit of weak clustering, the variance of the unbiased estimator converges to the continuum value much faster than with any alternative, all terms giving rise to a slower convergence exactly cancel. Explicit variance formulae are provide...

Context. We study galaxy evolution and spatial patterns in the surroundings of a sample of 2dF groups. Aims. Our aim is to find evidence of galaxy evolution and clustering out to 10 times the virial radius of the groups and so redefine their properties according to the spatial patterns in the fields and relate them to galaxy evolution. Methods. Group members and interlopers were redefined after...

CWI's research has a theme-oriented structure and is grouped into four clusters. Listed below are the names of the clusters and in parentheses their acronyms. ABSTRACT We discuss issues arising when a spatial pattern is observed within some bounded region of space, and one wishes to predict the process outside of this region extrapolation as well as to perform inference on features of the patte...

In 1858 William Ripley recalled an important nineteenth century assumption: In our school d&ys most of us were brought up to regard Asia as the mother of European people. We were told that an ideal race of men swarmed forth from the Himalayan highlands, disseminating culture right and left as they spread through the barbarous West. The primitive language, parent of all the varieties of speech--...
