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 ...
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 ...
MATH-131: Probabilités et statistiqueLe cours présente les notions de base de la théorie des probabilités et de l'inférence statistique. L'accent est mis sur les concepts principaux ainsi que les méthodes les plus utilisées. ...
MATH-663: Statistical consulting and collaborationsAnalyzing data for a collaborator or client is very different from working on your own research project ; not only do you need competences in statistics, you must also ensure good communication (both ways) in a multi-disciplinary environment, coordination ...
BIO-369: Randomness and information in biological dataBiology is becoming more and more a data science, as illustrated by the explosion of available genome sequences. This course aims to show how we can make sense of such data and harness it in order to understand biological processes in a quantitative way. ...
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-234(b): Probabilités et statistiqueLe cours présente les notions de base de la théorie des probabilités et de l'inférence statistique. L'accent est mis sur les concepts principaux ainsi que les méthodes les plus utilisées. ...
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. ...
PHYS-442: Modeling and design of experimentsIn the academic or industrial world, to optimize a system, it is necessary to establish strategies for the experimental approach. The DOE allows you to choose the best set of measurement points to minimize the variance of the results. The concepts learned ...
MATH-336: Randomization and causationThis course covers formal frameworks for causal inference. We focus on experimental designs, definitions of causal models, interpretation of causal parameters and estimation of causal effects. ...
ENV-513: Multivariate statistics in REnvironmental datasets often contain numerous parameters. Multivariate statistics allow us to simultaneously explore, understand and model such datasets. This course provides conceptual introduction and guidelines for applying multivariate statistical tool ...
MATH-442: Statistical theoryThis course gives a mostly rigourous treatment of some statistical methods outside the context of standard likelihood theory. ...
PHYS-423: Plasma IFollowing an introduction of the main plasma properties, the fundamental concepts of the fluid and kinetic theory of plasmas are introduced. Applications concerning laboratory, space, and astrophysical plasmas are discussed throughout the course. ...
MATH-522: Empirical processesWe learn how to control the nonasymptotic and random behavior of collections of estimators, when indexed by classes of functions/sets. Examples range from prototypical estimators used by statisticians, to nonparametric models used in machine learning. ...
