Semester : S5

Person(s) in charge :

Thierry Verdel, Professor, thierry.verdel@mines-nancy.univ-lorraine.fr 

Keywords : Inference, Probability, Risk, Decision, Estimation, Control, Normal distribution, Student, Chi2, Snédécor, Significance test, Linear regression analysis, ANOVA.

Prerequisites : Algebra and Analysis at a higher mathematics level (or undergraduate level scientific studies)

Objective : Show how Statistics allow the control of complexity and aleatory

Program and Content :

The course presents basic methods of inferential statistics, which allows the quarrying of general knowledge on populations from extracted samples. Its mastery permits to follow with sucess advanced analysis and decision-making courses. The course consists of 9 lab works and 1 written test. A handout is given at the beginning of the course and complements are available on the website of the class.

- Probability and random variables
- The Normal Law
- Statistical control
- Statistical estimation
- Statistical comparisons
- Facts and models
- Linear regression
- Statistical experimentation
- Introduction to data analysis, data mining and big-data.
