| Start Date: 09/07/2022 End Date: 12/20/2022 |
| Term: Fall Semester 2022 |
| Description: Computation is now an essential component of several modern statistical methods. This course will introduce students to computationally intensive techniques in statistics and explore the role of computation as a tool for discovery. Specifically, it will emphasize simulation-based, rather than calculus-based, approaches in statistical theory. Topics may include sampling algorithms, numerical analysis, and missing data. All data analysis in the course will be performed using R software. Research applications will be emphasized through assignments and student-defined projects. |
