MATH-502: Distribution and interpolation spacesThe goal of this course is to give an introduction to the theory of distributions and cover the fundamental results of Sobolev spaces including fractional spaces that appear in the interpolation theory. Those notions are central to the study of partial dif ...
CS-401: Applied data analysisThis course teaches the basic techniques, methodologies, and practical skills required to draw meaningful insights from a variety of data, with the help of the most acclaimed software tools in the data science world (pandas, scikit-learn, Spark, etc.) ...
COM-406: Foundations of Data ScienceWe discuss a set of topics that are important for the understanding of modern data science but that are typically not taught in an introductory ML course. In particular we discuss fundamental ideas and techniques that come from probability, information the ...
ENV-410: Science of climate changeThe course equips students with a comprehensive scientific understanding of climate change covering a wide range of topics from physical principles, historical climate change, greenhouse gas emissions, the IPCC assessment to future scenarios and climate ac ...
FIN-525: Financial big dataThe course introduces modern methods to acquire, clean, and analyze large quantities of financial data efficiently. The second part expands on how to apply these techniques and robust statistics to financial analysis, in particular to intraday data and inv ...
PHYS-757: Axiomatic Quantum Field TheoryPresentation of Wightman's axiomatic framework to QFT as well as to the necessary mathematical objects to their understanding (Hilbert analysis, distributions, group representations,...).
Proofs of the main mathematical consequences (CPT, spin-statistics ...
PHYS-441: Statistical physics of biomacromoleculesBiological macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins and cytoskeletal filaments are polymers. As such, they share a set of properties that are common to any polymer, which are the focus of this course. Details about the protein folding problem will be cove ...
MATH-404: Functional analysis IIWe introduce locally convex vector spaces. As an example we treat the space of test functions and the space of distributions. In the second part of the course, we discuss differential calculus in Banach spaces and some elements from nonlinear functional an ...
MATH-442: Statistical theoryThis course gives a mostly rigourous treatment of some statistical methods outside the context of standard likelihood theory. ...
DH-406: Machine learning for DHThis course aims to introduce the basic principles of machine learning in the context of the digital humanities. We will cover both supervised and unsupervised learning techniques, and study and implement methods to analyze diverse data types, such as imag ...
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 ...
MATH-413: Statistics for data scienceStatistics lies at the foundation of data science, providing a unifying theoretical and methodological backbone for the diverse tasks enountered in this emerging field. This course rigorously develops the key notions and methods of statistics, with an emph ...
MGT-448: Statistical inference and machine learningThis course aims to provide graduate students a thorough grounding in the methods, theory, mathematics and algorithms needed to do research and applications in machine learning. The course covers topics from machine learning, classical statistics, and data ...
FIN-403: EconometricsThe course covers basic econometric models and methods that are routinely applied to obtain inference results in economic and financial applications. ...
MATH-495: Mathematical quantum mechanicsQuantum mechanics is one of the most successful physical theories. This course presents the mathematical formalism (functional analysis and spectral theory) that underlies quantum mechanics. It is simultaneously an introduction to mathematical physics and ...
