Bayesian Statistics: From Concept to Data Analysis

Overview This course introduces the Bayesian approach to statistics, starting with the concept of probability and moving to the analysis of data. We will learn about the philosophy of the Bayesian approach as well as how to implement it for common types of data. We will compare the Bayesian approach to the more commonly-taught Frequentist …

Probability and Statistics: To p or not to p?

Overview We live in an uncertain and complex world, yet we continually have to make decisions in the present with uncertain future outcomes. Indeed, we should be on the look-out for “black swans” – low-probability high-impact events. To study, or not to study? To invest, or not to invest? To marry, or not to marry? …
