SUMMARY:Statistical challenges in cosmology -  Roberto Trotta (University 
 of Oxford)
DTSTART:20070529T153000Z
DTEND:20070529T163000Z
UID:TALK7004@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Jane Buckle
DESCRIPTION:In the last decade cosmology has become a data driven science\
 , thanks to a wealth of high-quality observational data. With the increase
  in the quantity and quality of the observations\, we find ourselves in a 
 position where more sophisticated statistical analysis tools are required 
 to face the growing complexity of our cosmological models. The talk will g
 ive an overview of some of the statistical challenges in modern cosmology\
 , and discuss problems ranging from parameter inference to model selection
  and also touch upon observers' selection effects.\n\n\n
