Content

Building on "Applied Statistics I" (german: "Angewandte Statistik I"), more complex statistical methods are covered: Generalized Linear Models (GLM), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Independence Analysis (ICA), and Bayesian statistics. The emphasis is on the practical application of all methods and their implementation in Python (with the modules statsmodels, scipy.stats, sklearn and pymc) and the presentation of results in notebooks.

Objectives

The students know advanced statistical methods, how to use them and how to implement them in software. They can figure out the differences between frequentist and Bayesian statistics.
The students are able to plan and evaluate experiments themselves and to avoid typical errors in experimental design. They can critically evaluate the way statistical methods are and results are presented in the literature.
