MATH 40024 - COMPUTATIONAL STATISTICS
(Slashed with MATH 50024) This course is about the use of computational tools to manage, explore, summarize and visualize data, as well as the computational underpinnings of fitting statistical models. It uses mostly the statistical computation language R, but also other languages like Python and Matlab. It also covers: simulation and random number generation, computationally intensive methods like the bootstrap and permutation tests, Expectation-Maximization and related algorithms and dimensionality reduction via matrix decomposition. Students with statistics courses from other disciplines should consult with the Department of Mathematical Sciences for possible prerequisite overrides. Prerequisite: MATH 21001 or MATH 21002 with a minimum C grade; and MATH 12022 with a minimum B grade or MATH 20011 with a minimum C grade or MATH 30011 with a minimum B grade or MATH 40012 with a minimum C grade.
