HUM-466: Experimental history of science IIThe course allows students to learn by doing about the history of science, and the role played by experimentation, technical skills or material objects in the production of knowledge. Students will ex
HUM-485: Data in context: Critical Data Studies ILe cours "Critical Data Studies" s'inscrit dans la nouvelle offre d'enseignements TILT qui propose de croiser des savoirs provenant des SHS et des sciences de l'ingénieur afin d'aborder des thématique
MATH-251(d): Numerical analysisThis course offers an introduction to numerical methods for the solution of mathematical problems as: solution of systems of linear and non-linear equations, functions approximation, integration and d
MATH-326: Rational quadratic formsGiven a quadratic equation, e.g. x^2 + 2*y^2 = 81, how can we decide whether there is a rational solution (x,y)? This basic question is what the theory of Rational Quadratic Forms is all about. The co
MATH-425: Spatial statisticsIn this course we will focus on stochastic approaches for modelling phenomena taking place in multivariate spaces. Our main focus will be on random field models and on statistical methods for model-ba
MATH-435: Bayesian ComputationThis course aims at giving a broad overview of Bayesian inference, highlighting how the basic Bayesian paradigm proceeds, and the various methods that can be used to deal with the computational issues
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 th
MATH-455: Combinatorial statisticsThe class will cover statistical models and statistical learning problems involving discrete structures. It starts with an overview of basic random graphs and discrete probability results. It then cov
MATH-495: Mathematical quantum mechanicsQuantum mechanics is one of the most successful physical theories. This course presents the mathematical formalism (functional analysis and spectral theory) that underlies quantum mechanics. It is sim
