In this course, we deal with the following topics:
- Descriptive statistics:
- different types of variables
- measures of centrality
- measures of variability
- measures of relative standing
- graphical methods to present data
- Basic probability theory:
- sample space, events, probability, combinatorics
- Law of total probability, Bayes rule
- stochastic variables, (joint, conditional) distributions, (conditional) expectations
- transformation of distributions
- Law of large numbers, Central limit theorem
- generating samples from a population
- Statistical inference:
- Confidence intervals: CI for mean(s), CI for proportion(s), CI for variance(s)
- hypothesis testing: null-hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test-statistic, critical value, p-value
- hypothesis for mean, proportion and variance
- comparing means, proportions, variances
- Introduction to estimation methods: maximum likelihood, methods of moments, least squares method
