Assessment of stochastic and deterministic models of 6304 quasar lightcurves from SDSS Stripe 82
The optical lightcurves of many quasars show variations of tenths of a magnitude or more on timescales of months to years. This variation often cannot be described well by a simple deterministic model. We perform a Bayesian comparison of over 20 deterministic and stochastic models on 6304 quasi-steller object (QSO) …
