Overview
The unit consists of a review of probabilistic foundations for data analysis including probability, random variables, expectation, distribution functions, probability distributions, central limit theorem, random vectors, conditional distributions and random processes.
You will develop the foundations of statistical inference including estimation, confidence intervals, maximum likelihood, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis.
A selection of more advanced topics in probability, random modelling and statistical inference will also be presented.
The material will be taught in the context of real engineering problems taken from multiple engineering disciplines. A widely used numerical computing environment will be used extensively throughout the unit.
