PHST 711

Advanced Statistical Computing II

This is a continuation of the statistical programming techniques, skills, and theory covered in PHST 710. The intent of this course is to further develop your ability to perform statistical programming. This includes carrying-out computational tasks, interfering with diverse data types and formats, and writing functions to implement statistical methods. Potential topics include multivariate optimization, C++ programming in R, statistical learning methods, non-parametric smoothing, dimension reduction/variable selection, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Additionally, the course may cover computing concepts such as cross-validation/resampling, regular expressions, and computing on the R language
