Objectives

The objective of this course is to provide the classic tools of mathematical statistics which includes the choice of the probabilistic model, its estimation and its evaluation. The aim of this course is also to provide training in the manipulation of data and the practical implementation of the studied models. For this, a substantial part of the course is oriented towards the implementation of the different models using the R software through the study of a large number of examples.

Palabras clave

Linear and logistic regression. Model selection. Design of experiments. Statistical analysis of numerical simulations. Bayesian optimization.

Programme

  1. Linear regression. Validities and limitations of the method. Model selection.
  2. Design of experiments: screening and response surface
  3. Logistic regression
  4. Statistical analysis of numerical simulations: Gaussian process regression, designs of computer experiments, sensitivity analysis, Bayesian optimization.

PRACTICAL ACTIVITIES The three activities will be devoted to learning the techniques of regression models on the R software. Numerous data sets will be studied.
