Learning outcomes of the course unit
Students acquire needed knowledge from important parts of the probability theory and mathematical statistics, which will enable them to evaluate and develop stochastic models of technical phenomena and processes based on these methods and realize them on PC.
Prerequisites
Rudiments of descriptive statistics, probability theory and mathematical statistics.
Co-requisites
Not applicable.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Course-unit credit requirements: active participation in seminars, mastering the subject matter, passing all written exams, and semester assignment acceptance. Preparing and defending a project.
Examination: semester assignment (10 points) and written form of the exam (90 points) consisting of two parts: a practical part (4 tasks related to random vectors, conditional distribution, multivariate normal distribution, regression analysis, correlation analysis, categorical data analysis); theoretical part (4 tasks related to basic notions, their properties, sense and practical use, and proofs of two theorems); evaluation: 0 to 70 points for the practical part and 0 to 20 points for the theoretical part; evaluation according to the total number of points (scoring 0 points for any of 4 practical tasks or whole theoretical part means failing the exam): excellent (90 - 100 points and both proofs), very good (80 - 89 points and both proofs), good (70 - 79 points and one proof), satisfactory (60 - 69 points), sufficient (50 - 59 points), failed (0 - 49 points).
