MSE-213: Probability and statistics for materials scienceThe course establishes the concepts of statistical analysis, probability theory, and data analysis. This includes standard statistical tests, correlation analysis and experimental design. It introduces computational statistical methods to analyse large dat ...
CS-411: Digital educationThis course addresses the relationship between specific technological features and the learners' cognitive processes. It also covers the methods and results of empirical studies: do student actually learn due to technologies? In fall 2025, P. Dillenbourg w ...
EE-613: Machine Learning for EngineersThe objective of this course is to give an overview of machine learning techniques used for real-world applications, and to teach how to implement and use them in practice. Laboratories will be done in python using jupyter notebooks. ...
MATH-341: Linear modelsRegression modelling is a fundamental tool of statistics, because it describes how the law of a random variable of interest may depend on other variables. This course aims to familiarize students with linear models and some of their extensions, which lie a ...
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 ...
PHYS-512: Statistical physics of computationThe students understand tools from the statistical physics of disordered systems, and apply them to study computational and statistical problems in graph theory, discrete optimisation, inference and machine learning. ...
MATH-493: Applied biostatisticsThis course covers topics in applied biostatistics, with an emphasis on practical aspects of data analysis using R statistical software. Topics include types of studies and their design and analysis, high dimensional data analysis (genetic/genomic) and oth ...
EE-568: Reinforcement learningThis course describes theory and methods for Reinforcement Learning (RL), which revolves around decision making under uncertainty. The course covers classic algorithms in RL as well as recent algorithms under the lens of contemporary optimization. ...
BIO-449: Understanding statistics and experimental designThis course is neither an introduction to the mathematics of statistics nor an introduction to a statistics program such as R. The aim of the course is to understand statistics from its experimental design and to avoid common pitfalls of statistical reason ...
MATH-524: Nonparametric estimation and inferenceNonparametric models are used to identify a wide range of relationships within data. This course gives a graduate-level overview of nonparametric statistical estimation and inference theory. ...
