Please note: Additional information will be added during the year. Currently missing information is labelled as “TBD” (i.e. To Be Determined).

1. PhD students must obtain a specified number of CFUs each year by attending teaching activities offered by the PhD School.
First and second year students must obtain 8 CFUs. Teaching activities ex DM 226/2021 provide 5 CFUs; free choice activities provide 3 CFUs.
Third year students must obtain 4 CFUs. Teaching activities ex DM 226/2021 provide 2 CFUs; free choice activities provide 2 CFUs.
More information regarding CFUs is found in the Handbook for PhD Students: https://www.univr.it/phd-vademecum

2. Registering for the courses is not required unless explicitly indicated; please consult the course information to verify whether registration is required or not. When registration is actually required, no confirmation e-mail will be sent after signing up. Please do not enquiry: if you entered the requested information, then registration was silently successful.

Obiettivi di apprendimento

The purpose of the modules is to explain, at an intermediate level, the basis of probability theory and some of its more relevant theoretical features.
The topics will be illustrated and explained through many examples.
Students are expected to acquire the language and the concepts needed to better understand the probabilistic models and the statistical techniques used in their subjects.

Prerequisiti e nozioni di base

There are no particular learning requirements. Students should have already been introduced (though at an elementary level) to probability and statistics. Students should also have some confidence in elementary set theory and mathematical calculus.

Programma

- Discrete random variables, binomial distribution.
- Continuous random variables, density functions.
- Transformations of random variables.
- Expectation, variance and moments of random variables.
- Multidimensional random variables, discrete multidimensional random variables, marginal and conditional distributions, independent random variables.
- Linear combinations of random variables.
- Introduction to limit theorems, weak law of large numbers.
