PHYS-454: Quantum optics and quantum informationThis lecture describes advanced concepts and applications of quantum optics. It emphasizes the connection with ongoing research, and with the fast growing field of quantum technologies. The topics cov
PHYS-467: Machine learning for physicistsMachine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in sciences including physics. In this course, fundamental principles and methods of machine learning will be introduced and practi
PHYS-512: Statistical physics of computationThe students understand tools from the statistical physics of disordered systems, and apply them to study computational and statistical problems in graph theory, discrete optimisation, inference and m
FIN-415: Probability and stochastic calculusThis course gives an introduction to probability theory and stochastic calculus in discrete and continuous time. The fundamental notions and techniques introduced in this course have many applicatio
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
MGT-416: Causal inferenceStudents will learn the core concepts and techniques of network analysis with emphasis on causal inference. Theory and
application will be balanced, with students working directly with network data th
MATH-432: Probability theoryThe course is based on Durrett's text book
Probability: Theory and Examples.
It takes the measure theory approach to probability theory, wherein expectations are simply abstract integrals.
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
