Second semester of sequence in theory of linear models with focus on "analysis of variance/design of experiments" models. Includes factorial experiments (balanced and unbalanced designs, notions of interaction, etc.), randomized block designs, incomplete designs (incomplete block designs and latin squares), random effects, nested models, and mixed models.

Point and interval estimation, hypothesis testing, large sample results in estimation and testing; decision theory; Bayesian methods; analysis of discrete data. Also, topics from nonparametric methods, sequential methods, regression, analysis of variance. Prerequisite: Statistc 607 or equivalent.

A modern treatment of probability theory based on abstract measure and integration. Random variables, expectations, independence, laws of large numbers, central limit theorem, and general conditioning using the Radon-Nikodym theorem. Introduction to stochastic processes: martingales, Brownian motion. Prerequisite: Math 623.

Basic ideas of point and interval estimation and hypothesis testing; one and two sample problems, simple linear regression, topics from among one-way analysis of variance, discrete data analysis and nonparametric methods. Prerequisite: Statistc 515 or equivalent.

[Note: Because this course presupposes knowledge of basic math skills, it will satisfy the R1 requirement upon successful completion.]

First semester of a two-semester sequence. Emphasis given to probability theory necessary for application to and understanding of statistical inference. Probability models, sample spaces, conditional probability, independence. Random variables, expectation, variance, and various discrete and continuous probability distributions. Sampling distributions, the Central Limit Theorem and normal approximations. Multivariate calculus introduced as needed. Prerequisites: MATH 132, or 136. (Gen.Ed. R2)

Planning, statistical analysis and interpretation of experiments. Designs considered include factorial designs, randomized blocks, latin squares, incomplete balanced blocks, nested and crossover designs, mixed models. Has a strong applied component involving the use of a statistical package for data analysis. Prerequisite: previous coursework in statistics.
