(syllabus)
Random variables and their distribution, moment generating function, mean variance and covariance. Random sampling model and statistical model. Statistics: concept, examples, sufficient statistics. Point estimators: definition and desired properties, moments, maximum likelihood and Bayes. Computational methods: Newton-Raphson, EM algorithm Improving an estimator: Rao-Blackwell, UMVU estimator, full statistic, Lehman-Scheff ́e II and Cramer-Rao Confidence intervals: intuitive, pivotal quantity, IC for Bayes and asymptotic IC. Hypothesis testing: likelihood ratio, pivotal quantity test (Z and T test), duality with IC, UMP, Neyman-Pearson and Karlin-Rubin tests. Non-parametric methods: goodness-of-fit, contingency table, Kolmogorov-Smirnov and ranking tests. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and F. Regression: linear, multiple linear, generalized linear and Logistic / Poisson
