MICRO-428: MetrologyThe course deals with the concept of measuring in different domains, particularly in the electrical, optical, and microscale domains. The course will end with a perspective on quantum measurements, wh
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-522: Empirical processesFrom prototypical examples of estimators used by statisticians, to more complex nonparametric models, methods and theorems will be taught to study their (non)asymptotic behavior, when defined as mappi
COM-401: Cryptography and securityThis course introduces the basics of cryptography. We review several types of cryptographic primitives, when it is safe to use them and how to select the appropriate security parameters. We detail how
MGT-581: Introduction to econometricsThe course provides an introduction to econometrics for economics and financial applications. The objective is to learn how to make valid (i.e., causal) inference from economic and social data.
MATH-493: Applied biostatisticsThis course covers topics in applied biostatistics, with an emphasis on practical aspects of data analysis using R statistical software. Topics include types of studies and their design and analysis,
CS-456: Deep reinforcement learningThis course provides an overview and introduces modern methods for reinforcement learning (RL.) The course starts with the fundamentals of RL, such as Q-learning, and delves into commonly used approac
PHYS-338: Statistical physicsCe cours introduit les principes fondamentaux de la physique statistique, l'une des théories les plus fondamentales de la physique moderne.
