Covers ANOVA method, focusing on partitioning total sum of squares into treatment and error components, mean square calculations, Fisher statistic, and F-distribution.
Explores Sum of Squares polynomials and Semidefinite Programming in Polynomial Optimization, enabling the approximation of non-convex polynomials with convex SDP.
Introduces simple linear regression, properties of residuals, variance decomposition, and the coefficient of determination in the context of Okun's law.
