Undervisningsformer

Teaching consists of lectures, presentations, laboratory work, and tutoring, both physical and by distance.

  • Linear regression: simple and multiple linear regression with assessing the accuracy of the coefficients and the model and comparison with K-nearest neighbors
  • Classification: logistic regression, linear discriminant analysis, quadratic discriminant analysis, K-nearest neighbors, naive Bayes
  • Resampling methods: cross-validation, bootstrap
  • Linear model selection and regularization: subset selection, shrinkage methods, dimension reduction methods, considerations in high dimensions
  • Unsupervised learning: Principal component analysis, clustering methods
