Course Description

The role of statistical modeling and identification in modern science (an example). Descriptive statistics and data visualization (histogram, scatter graph, box plots). Goodness of fit tests. Description and evaluation of statistical properties of an estimate: biasness, efficiency, consistency, sufficiency and completeness (Neyman-Fisher factorization theorem, Rao-Blackwell-Lehmann-Scheffe theorem). Methods for finding the estimate: minimum variance unbiased criterion (MVU estimate), maximum likelihood estimation (ML) and CR lower bound, BLUE, method of moments, Bayesian methods, LMMSE, Wiener filter. Departures from assumptions (errors-in-variables, instrumental variables). Comparison and selection of methods. Model evaluation and selection (F-test and normal-plot, Akaike information criterion, Mallows' Cp). Regression and correlation. Factor analysis and principal component analysis (PCA; scree plot).
