Course objective : Develop statistical thinking and show how probabilistic models can be used to analyse random processes.
Prerequisites : Basic concepts of analysis and algebra are necessary.
Workshops : The 40 hours of practicals will be divided into tutorials and practicals in the computer room of the mathematical Institute. moreover, homeworks will be regularly given.
Organization : The courses and the tutorials/practicals are given over the two semesters according to a timetable distributed to the students in the beginning of the academic year.
Written notes : Notes (on the theory and on the exercises) are given to the students
