STAT 52800 - Introduction To Mathematical Statistics |
Credit Hours: 3.00. The course introduces the fundamental frameworks of statistical theory, from which statistical methods can be derived. This includes the framework of data and statistical models, decision theory (risk functions, Bayes and minimax criteria), sufficient statistics, exponential distribution families, estimation methods, unbiased estimators and information inequality (Cramer-Rao), the Neyman-Pearson framework of hypothesis testing, monotone likelihood ratio families and likelihood ratio tests, and an introduction of asymptotic approximations. Students will need background in advanced calculus, linear algebra, probability, and some mathematical analysis.
