Lecturer: Valerio Mazzoni
Summary: Introduction to the basic concepts of descriptive statistics and probability theory
Description: the following techniques will be studied: contingency tables and goodness-of-fit tests; hypothesis testing about the probability of an event, on a single sample, on two paired samples and on two independent samples; the case of more than two (dependent/independent) samples; tests for the trend detection and correlation; measures of association and related hypothesis testing methods; non parametric inference (Jackknife and Bootstrap).
Skills acquired: use of nonparametric techniques to solve hypotheses testing problems where the conditions for parametric tests are not fulfilled.
