Learning objectives
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.
Prerequisites and basic notions
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.
Program
- 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.
Bibliography
Didactic methods
Lessons will be delivered via Zoom; recordings will be made available by the lecturer. Attendance is not required, but passing a written test is required to obtain credits.
Learning assessment procedures
The final assessment will be through a written paper. Alternatively, there will be a Moodle QUIZ.
