| Credits/ECTS : |
|
|
| Holder(s) : | Gentiane Haesbroeck |
|
| Language : | Langue française |
|
| Course contents : | The course is divided into two parts: descriptive statistics and probability theory. |
|
| 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 written in French (on the theory and on the exercises) will be sold to the students at the start of the academic year. |
|
| Assessment : | The final mark is a weighted mean of the marks attributed to the three following assesments:
- practical exam on the R statistical software.
- written exam on exercises during the period of examination of May-June.
- oral exam on theory during the period of examination of May-June.
Moreover, two tests are planned during the second semester. They are useful for the students in order to get a feed back from the professor. They are not taken into account in the final mark of the course. |
