Aims and scope

Algebraic statistics is a branch of mathematical statistics that focuses on the use of algebraic, geometric, and combinatorial methods in statistics. While the use of these methods has a long history in statistics, algebraic statistics is continuously forging new interdisciplinary connections.

This growing field has established itself squarely at the intersection of several areas of mathematics including, for instance, multilinear algebra, commutative algebra, algebraic geometry, convex geometry, combinatorics, theoretical problems in statistics (e.g., estimation, model fitting, optimal design, asymptotics of learning theory), and their practical applications.

Algebraic Statistics is the first-choice journal for algebraic statistics, and welcomes a broad range of submissions.

Ethics and policies

Information about the journal's editorial principles, its policies for authors, the handling of complaints and appeals, and copyright and licensing can be found here.

Peer-review process

This journal operates a single-anonymized review process (the names of the reviewers are hidden from the author). You can read about the peer-review process, including expectations and responsibilities for the journal and for reviewers, here.

Publication schedule

Algebraic Statistics publishes 2 issues per year, for an expected total of about 200 pages.

Access

Journal access and fees

Access to the journal is by subscription. All articles become free to access and read six years past publication (meaning on the sixth January 1st after the publication date). The journal does not charge any author fees.

Preservation of access
