| | | Learning outcomes |
- EC
| The student is capable of acquiring new knowledge. | - EC
| The student is able to correctly use the theory, either methodologically or in an application context or both, thus contributing to scientific research within the field of statistical science, data science, or within the field of application. | | | - DC
| The student is able to correctly use the theory methodologically, thus contributing to scientific research within the field of statistical and data science.
|
|
| | EC = learning outcomes DC = partial outcomes BC = evaluation criteria |
|
|
The student needs to understand and to be able to apply/calculate the basic concepts in probability theory and statistics: random variable, continous/discrete distributions, expectation, variance, multivariate/marginal distribution, independence of random variables, conditional probability/density, central limit theorem, multivariate normal distribution.

|
|
This course deals with the theoretical basis of parametric statistical inference. Key concepts of estimation, confidence regions and hypothesis testing are introduced and applied to several parametric statistical models.
