Introduction to probability, Discrete and continuous random variables, Numerical characteristics of random variables,
Exploratory data analysis, Point and interval estimations of parameters, Hypothesis testing, Simple linear regression
model.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The aim of Repetitorium is to enable
the understanding of mathematics subject matter by solving concrete exercises. Repetitorium will be primarily focused
on practical part of the exam; the exercises that correspond to the written part of the exam will be solved there.
Course Contents
1. Combinatorics. Random events, operations with them, sample space.
2. Definitions of probability events - classical, geometrical, statistics. Conditional probability, Bayes\' theorem.
Bernoulli independent repeated trials.
3. Discrete random variable and continuous random variable. Functions of random variables. Moment-generating function,
quantiles.
4. Discrete probability distribution.
5. Continuous probability distribution.
6. Statistics. Statistical methods, descriptive statistics
7. Observed data. Point estimators, interval estimators.
8. Statistical hypothesis testing – the testing process, interpretation, importance. Parametric tests.
9. Correlation and regression analysis.
