- Course objectives
- The basic course of probability and mathematical statistics and introductory course for other theoretically oriented and applied stochastic subjects. The content of the course is an introduction to mathematical statistics, theory of estimation and the principle of statistical hypotheses testing. The course is oriented to random samples from normal distributions. As a result of successfully completing this course, students will have demonstrated an acceptable level of mastery of the concepts and applications of an introductory course in statistics.
- Syllabus
- Random samples: definition and sample characteristics, unbiased and consistent estimators, samples from normal populatins, examples of point and interval estimators. Theory of estimation: the best unbiased estimators, efficient estimators, methods for construction of point estimators (maximum likelihood method, moment method, quantiles and methods for interval estimation. Statistical hypotheses testing: basic concepts, Neyman-Pearson lemma, tests on parameters of normal distributions
