Forensic evaluation relies on rigorous quantitative techniques to assess the probative value of diverse forms of evidence. Modern forensic science increasingly integrates statistical ...

Successful completion of this course demonstrate your achievement of the following learning outcomes for the MS-DS program: Define a composite hypothesis and the level of significance for a test with ...

Confidence intervals are computed from a random sample and therefore they are also random. The long run behavior of a 95% confidence interval is such that we’d expect 95% of the confidence intervals ...

Statistical inference on the circle may strongly depend on the chosen reference system. Here, we introduce necessary and sufficient conditions to avoid inferential problems and misinterpretation of ...

Properties of estimators: unbiasedness, consistency, efficiency and sufficiency. Methods of estimation with particular emphasis given to the method of maximum likelihood. Hypothesis testing and ...

At a recent conference on Bayes, fiducial and frequentist inference, David Cox presented eight illustrative examples, chosen to highlight potential difficulties for the theory of inference. We discuss ...
