Description

This lecture delves into decision theory, where inference is viewed as a game between Nature and the statistician. It covers the framework for statistical inference, including estimation, testing, and confidence intervals. The lecture explores minimax and Bayes decision rules, emphasizing risk functions and their comparisons.
