MGT-499: Statistics and data scienceThis class provides a hands-on introduction to statistics and data science, with a focus on causal inference, applications to sustainability issues using Python, and dissemination of scientific result
MATH-519: Topics in high-dimensional probabilityThis is a theoretical course about probability in high dimensions. We will look at some mathematical phenomena appearing as the number of random variables grows large - e.g. concentration of measure o
MATH-131: Probability and statisticsLe cours présente les notions de base de la théorie des probabilités et de l'inférence statistique. L'accent est mis sur les concepts principaux ainsi que les méthodes les plus utilisées.
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-600: Optimization and simulationMaster state-of-the art methods in optimization with heuristics and simulation.
Work involves:
- reading the material beforehand
- class hours to discuss the material and solve problems
- homework
MATH-485: Introduction to stochastic PDEsStochastic PDEs are used to model systems that are spatially extended and include a random component. This course gives an introduction to this topic, including some general measure theory, some Gauss
CS-526: Learning theoryMachine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in many sciences and applications. This course concentrates on the theoretical underpinnings of machine learning.
