Statistical Learning (formerly MATH 0218)
This course is an introduction to modern statistical, machine learning, and computational methods to analyze large and complex data sets that arise in a variety of fields, from biology to economics to astrophysics. The theoretical underpinnings of the most important modeling and predictive methods will be covered, including regression, classification, clustering, resampling, and tree-based methods. Student work will involve implementation of these concepts using open-source computational tools. (MATH 0118 or STAT 0118 or STAT 0201 or MATH 0216 or BIOL 1230 or ECON 1230 or ENVS 1230, or FMMC 1230 or HARC 1230 or JAPN 1230 or LNGT 1230 or NSCI 1230 or MATH 1230 or SOCI 1230or WRPR 1230 or GEOG 1230) 3 hrs. lect./disc.
