An introduction to mathematical statistics for data science, covering method of moments, maximum likelihood, and more

What you'll learn

Learn how to estimate statistical parameters using the method of moments and maximum likelihood

Learn how to evaluate and compare different estimators using notions such as bias, variance, and mean squared error.

Learn about the Cramer-Rao lower bound and how to know if we have found the best possible estimator

Learn to evaluate asymptotic properties of estimators, including consistency and the central limit theorem.

Learn to create confidence intervals

Requirements

High school algebra, including manipulating functions with variables

Basic knowledge of calculus (integration and differentiation) is recommended for some chapters.

Prior experience with probability or statistics will be useful, but we cover everything assuming no previous knowledge!

Description

This course teaches the foundations of mathematical statistics, focusing on methods of estimation such as the method of moments and maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs), evaluating estimators by their bias, variance, and efficiency, and an introduction to asymptotic statistics including the central limit theorem and confidence intervals.The course includes:Over four hours of video lectures, using the innovative lightboard technology to deliver face-to-face lecturesSupplementary lecture notes with each lesson covering important vocabulary, examples and explanations from the video lessonsEnd of chapter practice problems to reinforce your understanding and develop skills from the courseYou will learn about:Three common probability distributions, the Bernoulli distribution, uniform distribution, and normal distributionExpected value and its relation to the sample meanThe method of moments for creating estimatorsExpected value of estimators and unbiased estimatorsVariance of random variables and variance of estimatorsFisher information and the Cramer-Rao Lower BoundThe central limit theoremConfidence intervalsThis course is ideal for many types of students:Students who have taken an introductory statistics class and who would like to dive into the mathematical detailsData science professionals who would like to refresh or expand their statistics knowledge to prepare for job interviewsAnyone who wants to learn how to think like a statisticianPre-requisitesThe course requires a good understanding of high school algebra and manipulating equations with variables.Some chapters use concepts from introductory calculus like differentiation or integration. If you do not know calculus but otherwise have strong math skills, you can still follow along while only missing a few mathematical details.
