Course Syllabus

Abstract

Classical (mathematical) statistics usually turns out to be unsustainable and unrobust to real problems. Many data analysis tasks (in economics, finance and business) require alternative, more complex and advanced approaches, which will be applicable in practice. In this course, we will discuss a great amount of such topics. We will talk about their theoretical (mathematical and probabilistic) foundations and see how they can be applied to the practical problems.
