| Kurzbeschreibung | We study selected chapters from the book "Computer Age Statistical Inference: Algorithms, Evidence and Data Science" by Bradley Efron and Trevor Hastie. | ||||
| Lernziel | During this seminar, we will study roughly one chapter per week from the book "Computer Age Statistical Inference: Algorithms, Evidence and Data Science" by Bradley Efron and Trevor Hastie. You will obtain a good overview of the field of modern statistics. Moreover, you will practice your self-studying and presentation skills. | ||||
| Inhalt | In the words of Efron and Hastie: "The twenty-first century has seen a breathtaking expansion of statistical methodology, both in scope and in influence. “Big data,” “data science,” and “machine learning” have become familiar terms in the news, as statistical methods are brought to bear upon the enormous data sets of modern science and commerce. How did we get here? And where are we going? This book takes us on a journey through the revolution in data analysis following the introduction of electronic computation in the 1950s. Beginning with classical inferential theories – Bayesian, frequentist, Fisherian – individual chapters take up a series of influential topics: survival analysis, logistic regression, empirical Bayes, the jackknife and bootstrap, random forests, neural networks, Markov chain Monte Carlo, inference after model selection, and dozens more. The book integrates methodology and algorithms with statistical inference, and ends with speculation on the future direction of statistics and data science." | ||||

| Kurzbeschreibung | Etwa 5 Vorträge zur angewandten Statistik. | ||||
| Lernziel | Kennenlernen von statistischen Methoden in ihrer Anwendung in verschiedenen Anwendungsgebieten. | ||||
| Inhalt | In etwa 5 Einzelvorträgen pro Semester werden Methoden der Statistik einzeln oder überblicksartig vorgestellt, oder es werden Probleme und Problemtypen aus einzelnen Anwendungsgebieten besprochen. | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Dies ist keine Vorlesung. Es wird keine Prüfung durchgeführt, und es werden keine Kreditpunkte vergeben. Nach besonderem Programm: http://stat.ethz.ch/events/zukost Lehrsprache ist Englisch oder Deutsch je nach ReferentIn. | ||||
| 406-2604-AAL | Probability and Statistics Belegung ist NUR erlaubt für MSc Studierende, die diese Lerneinheit als Auflagenfach verfügt haben. Alle andere Studierenden (u.a. auch Mobilitätsstudierende, Doktorierende) können diese Lerneinheit NICHT belegen. | 7 KP | 15R | S. van de Geer | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | Introduction to probability and statistics with many examples, based on chapters from the books "Probability and Random Processes" by G. Grimmett and D. Stirzaker and "Mathematical Statistics and Data Analysis" by J. Rice. | ||||
| Lernziel | The goal of this course is to provide an introduction to the basic ideas and concepts from probability theory and mathematical statistics. In addition to a mathematically rigorous treatment, also an intuitive understanding and familiarity with the ideas behind the definitions are emphasized. Measure theory is not used systematically, but it should become clear why and where measure theory is needed. | ||||
| Inhalt | Probability: Chapters 1-5 (Probabilities and events, Discrete and continuous random variables, Generating functions) and Sections 7.1-7.5 (Convergence of random variables) from the book "Probability and Random Processes". Most of this material is also covered in Chap. 1-5 of "Mathematical Statistics and Data Analysis", on a slightly easier level. Statistics: Sections 8.1 - 8.5 (Estimation of parameters), 9.1 - 9.4 (Testing Hypotheses), 11.1 - 11.3 (Comparing two samples) from "Mathematical Statistics and Data Analysis". | ||||
