Wavelets have been quite popular, for instance. See, e.g., <a href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-ref_query?bibcode=2002ApJS..138..185F&refs=CITATIONS&db_key=AST" rel="nofollow">cite list for the Wavdetect paper</a>. Alex Young has also been pioneering the use of Curvelets in solar image analysis. Strictly speaking, it is not <em>modeling</em> as understood by Bayesians, but nevertheless it shows that astronomers are aware of the concepts.
