Learning outcomes of the course unit

Knowledge of basics on descriptive statistics of one- and two-dimensional populations. Knowledge of statistical tests and basics on analysis of variance, analysis of relationships and regression analysis. Knowledge of using the statistical programs.

Prerequisites

Basics of linear algebra, calculus, probability theory, and statistics as taught in the basic mathematics courses.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations - lecture, seminar.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Submission of solutions to problems assigned by the teacher for home work. Unless properly excused, students must attend all the workshops. The result of the semester examination is given by the sum of maximum of 80 points obtained for a written test and a maximum of 20 points from the seminar.

5. Basics of mathematical statistics. Parametric problems with one random sample.
6.Parametric problems with two random smaples. Comparing variances and means.
7.Non-parametric tests. Goodness-of-fit tests.
8.Goodness-of-fit tests. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.
9.Analysis of variance in a one-factor model.
10.Analysis of variance in several-factor models.
11.Analysis of relationships.
12.Regression analysis.
13.Regression analysis.

The time schedule of the seminars follows that of lectures.

Work placements

Aims

To acquaint the students with methods used to process statistical data, calculate point and interval estimates and test statistical hypotheses. Teach them how to perform and use regression analysis, tell whether the components of a random vector are independent or not. Next the students should be able to use analysis of variance to plan experiments.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Extent and forms are specified by guarantor’s regulation updated for every academic year.
