Since 1933, the Annals has been edited jointly by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study. more...

5. Journal of Business and Economic Statistics

The Journal of Business and Economic Statistics ( JBES ) publishes a range of articles, primarily applied statistical analyses of microeconomic, macroeconomic, forecasting, business, and finance related topics. More general papers in statistics, econometrics, computation, simulation, or graphics are also appropriate if they are immediately applicable to the journal's general topics of interest. Articles published in JBES contain significant results, high-quality methodological content, excellent exposition, and usually include a substantive empirical application. more...

6. Biometrika

Biometrika is primarily a journal of statistics in which emphasis is placed on papers containing original theoretical contributions of direct or potential value in applications. From time to time, papers in bordering fields are also published. more...

7. Sankhya B

Sankhya, Series A, publishes original, high quality research articles in various areas of modern statistics, such as probability, theoretical statistics, mathematical statistics and machine learning. The areas are interpreted in a broad sense. Articles are judged on the basis of their novelty and technical correctness. Sankhya, Series B, primarily covers applied and interdisciplinary statistics including data sciences. Applied articles should preferably include analysis of original data of broad interest, novel applications of methodology and development of methods and techniques of immediate more...
