Abstract

Time-Domain astronomy exercises all aspects of the Virtual Observatory framework and Astroinformatics. Applications of machine learning and statistics to the analysis of large numbers of light-curves will increasingly yield new results as the data accumulate. However, the most challenging problems remain in the arena of rapid classification of transient events and their automated follow-up prioritisation. The talk illustrated those issues with examples from recent or ongoing synoptic sky surveys.
