|
|
The student knows the basics of statistical inference and probability and linear models.
|
|
|
|
In this course students will learn about some more advanced and state-of-the art statistical inference issues and techniques that are relevant for modern applications that go beyond the scope of traditional statistical methods:
- prediction versus association
- observational versus experimental studies
- basics of causal inference and causal machine learning.
Examples (with R code) will also be discussed.
