Abstract
The course "Applied Statistics in Machine Learning" is designed for students enrolled in the Data Analysis and Business Analytics program who wish to gain a thorough understanding of certain aspects of applied statistics necessary for working with machine learning algorithms. The course covers both fundamental statistical analysis topics, such as constructing multivariate confidence intervals, hypothesis testing under nuisance parameters, and regression and variance analysis on nonstandard data, as well as modern methods that significantly improve data analysis (such as Markov chain sampling or variational inference methods). The course also covers several modern regression analysis methods, such as Gaussian process regression, Bayesian regressions, and generalized linear models.
