Description

Mathematical Statistics II Multivariate, marginal and conditional distributions, independence, expectation, covariance, conditional expectation. Functions of random variables, transformation techniques, order statistics. Special and limiting distributions. Proof of central limit theorem. Point estimation: efficiency, consistency, law of large numbers, sufficiency, Rao-Blackwell theorem MVUE. Interval estimation. Hypothesis testing: Neyman-Pearson theory, likelihood ratio test, Bayesian inference. Lectures, 3 hours per week; lab/tutorial, 1 hour per week. Prerequisite(s): STAT (MATH) 2P03 and STAT (MATH) 2P82 or permission of the instructor. Note: this course may be offered in multiple modes of delivery.
