Statistics 8701
Computational Statistical Methods
Spring 2004
In this course we study statistical methods that
are computationally intensive, including simulation, Monte Carlo
integration, Markov chain Monte Carlo, bootstrapping, cross validation,
smoothing, and so on.
We will be doing a lot of work in R, and some with C or FORTRAN.
Many course materials are available in the
"Portable Document Format" (PDF), which can be viewed
and printed by using Acrobat Reader software. Versions of Acrobat
Reader for most computing platforms may obtained for free from
Adobe Inc.
