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 ...
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. ...
ENG-267: Méthodes d'estimationLes étudiants traitent des observations entachées d'incertitude de manière rigoureuse. Ils maîtrisent les principales méthodes de compensation des mesures et d'estimation des paramètres. Ils appliquent certains modèles à des problèmes concrets issus de div ...
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. ...
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-442: Statistical theoryThis course gives a mostly rigourous treatment of some statistical methods outside the context of standard likelihood theory. ...
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. ...
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 ...
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. ...
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. ...
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 ...
FIN-403: EconometricsThe course covers basic econometric models and methods that are routinely applied to obtain inference results in economic and financial applications. ...
MATH-441: Robust and nonparametric statisticsIn the decades from 1930 to 1950, many rank-based statistics were introduced. These methods were received with much interest, because they worked under weak conditions. Starting in the late 1950, a theory of robustness was added. The course gives an overvi ...
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 ...
