Course description

The evolution from analogue to digital technologies continues to dominate the attention of decision makers today. Many tools in industrial production processes have been automated or replaced by highly complex mechanisms with pre-programmed decision-making. The change to digital modes of operations increasingly determines the lives of individuals and does so in increasingly unexpected ways.

The students get insight into the area of modern internet based Computational Statistics Methods. Practically relevant knowledge on methods, data forms and Gestalt will be trained. The use of GITHUB and network techniques will be taught and transferred into www.quantlet.de . Direct computer oriented knowledge and possibilites of empirical research will be shown. The course is televised to NUS, Singapore. Together with the Dept STAT of NUS we present extremely practical examples from finance, neuro economics and network analysis.

The lectures take place at different times LvB Chair of STAT, Spandauer Str. 1, LvB LIB Room 401 if not otherwise stated.
