PHYS-467: Machine learning for physicistsMachine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in sciences including physics. In this course, fundamental principles and methods of machine learning will be introduced and practised. ...
EE-411: Fundamentals of inference and learningThis is an introductory course in the theory of statistics, inference, and machine learning, with an emphasis on theoretical understanding & practical exercises. The course will combine, and alternate, between mathematical theoretical foundations and prac ...
MATH-562: Statistical inferenceInference from the particular to the general based on probability models is central to the statistical method. This course gives a graduate-level introduction of the main ideas of statistical inference. ...
FIN-618: Financial Econometrics IIThe course aims to give students the tools to write academic papers and is divided into two parts. The first part covers microeconometric methods including panel data, IVs, difference-in-differences, and regression discontinuity design. The second part cov ...
MATH-474: Statistics for genomic data analysisAfter a short introduction to basic molecular biology and genomic technologies, this course covers the most useful statistical concepts and methods for the analysis of genomic data. ...
FIN-619: Financial Econometrics and Machine LearningThis course consists of three parts: an introduction to financial time series data characteristics and analysis, a discussion on econometrics techniques (eg, GARCH models, cointegration, extreme values, truncation), and an exploration of machine learning t ...
FIN-403: EconometricsThe course covers basic econometric models and methods that are routinely applied to obtain inference results in economic and financial applications. ...
EE-726: Sparse stochastic processesWe cover the theory and applications of sparse stochastic processes (SSP). SSP are solutions of differential equations driven by non-Gaussian innovations. They admit a parsimonious representation in a wavelet basis and are relevant to coding, compressed se ...
EE-607: Advanced Methods for Model IdentificationThis course introduces the principles of model identification for non-linear dynamic systems, and provides a set of possible solution methods that are thoroughly characterized in terms of modelling assumptions and uncertainty levels. ...
FIN-604: Financial Econometrics IWe provide a comprehensive overview of the econometric tools that are essential to estimate financial models, both for asset pricing and
for corporate finance. ...
EE-714: Nonlinear signal modeling and predictionThe literature on nonlinear signal processing has exploded, and it becomes more and more difficult to identify the most useful approaches for specific contexts. This course presents promising developments for the practical application of nonlinear signal m ...
MATH-685: Learning Theory of Nonparametric RegressionThis course is intended to give a brief overview of how to prove consistency results in nonparametric regression. In particular, we will focus on least-square regression estimators. Some connections to the empirical risk minimization (ERM) problem will be ...
