VOStat

A new version of this tool named 'AstroStat' is available here

VOStat allows astronomers to use both simple and sophisticated statistical routines on large datasets. This tool uses a large public-domain statistical computing package called 'R'. Datasets can be uploaded in either ASCII or VOTABLE (preferred) format. The statistical computations are performed by the VOStat and results are returned to the user. Only a small portion of R functionality is available through VOStat. For a full data analysis, users are encouraged to install R locally.

VOStat was originally developed by a NSF focused group research team led by Penn State and consisting of Caltech and CMU. The development of this new version of VOStat is undertaken jointly by VO-I and the Center for Astrostatistics at Penn State, with contributions from Caltech and Calcutta University Statistics Department.
