Co-requisites
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
The graded course-unit credit will be awarded on the folloving conditions:
- participation in final test
- submitting calculation projects solved on computer.
The mark, which corresponds to the total sum of points achieved (max 100 points), consists of:
- points achieved in control tests,
- points achieved by computer-aided calculation of projects and theoretical questions.
- points achieved in seminars
The grades and corresponding points:
A (100-90), B (89-83), C (82-76), D (75-69), E (68-60), F (59-0).
Course curriculum
Week 2: continuous random variables (uniform, normal, normalized normal, exponential distribution, density, quantilles)
Week 3: confidence intervals and hypothesis testing (quantiles, construction of point estimates and their interpretation)
Week 4: processing of data files one-dimensional and two-dimensional (measures of location and scattering, mean, median and percentiles, variation range and variance, histogram, empirical distribution function)
Week 5: Pivot tables (general and 2x2 table, test of goodness of fit, pivot tables in Excel)
Week 6: regression analysis (simple and multiple regressiont)
Week 7: regression analysis (the quality of the regression model determination coefficient, t test and F-test)
Week 8: statistical process control measurements (three types of control charts, statistical control of the manufacturing process, identifiable cause)
Week 9: statistical process control comparisons (four basic types of control charts), Target Control Charts
Week 10: capability indices (upper and lower tolerance limit, target value, interpretation capability index)
Week 11: Inventory management (model dependent demand)
Week 12: Inventory management (independent demand model)
Week 13: Acceptance sampling (statistical acceptance inspection measurements and statistical comparisons)
