STA 6348
Bayesian Analysis for Machine Learning and Uncertainty Quantification
This course emphasizes Bayesian methodology for modeling, inference and prediction using hierarchical/multilevel models, with particular emphasis on computation (Monte Carlo and its flavors) and applications (inference and prediction in models for regression and classification, potentially with various types of statistical dependence) as intended for Master’s and doctoral students in data sciences and engineering.
Prerequisites & course information
Grading Scheme: Letter Grade Prerequisite: (i) mathematical statistics emphasizing inference (e.g., PHC6092 or STA6327) and regression (e.g., STA6207) or (ii) a graduate course in machine learning with emphasis on probability/statistics or (iii) permission of the instructor.
