The Elementary Course of Statistics is aimed at undergraduate students. Students will learn basic statistical methods and gain insight into basic probability concepts. Data processing will be done using R software which is a programming language designed especially for statistical calculations and graphical outputs. It is a free software with quality help, and thanks to its great popularity in the statistical community, many blogs with tutorials, hints and sample examples can be found.

Requirements to the exam
Last update: Šnupárková Jana RNDr. Ph.D. (18.09.2020)

The rules for granting the credit are determined by the teachers. As a rule, it is necessary to actively participate in seminars and solve individual tasks, or successfully pass an additional comprehensive test. Attendance at seminars is mandatory.

The obtained credit is a necessary condition for passing the exam. The exam is oral.

1. Random events, probability and its properties, independence of random events, conditional probability

2. Random variables, their probability distribution and characteristics

3. Fundamental types of probability distributions (especially normal distribution)

4. Random vectors and their distributions, correlation and independence of random variables

5. Sum of large number of random variables — Central Limit Theorem, Law of Large Numbers

6. Random sample, point estimate of expectation and variance, Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian estimators

7. Confidence intervals — calculation and interpretation

8. Testing of statistical hypotheses — basic principle, type I and II errors, interpretation of results (p-value), basic parametric and nonparametric tests

9. ANOVA

10. Test of independence of quantitative random variables (correlation test)

11. Goodness-of-fit testing, test of independence in contingency tables

12. Fundaments of regression analysis — linear, multiple, nonlinear

Entry requirements -
Last update: Řehák Karel doc. Ing. CSc. (07.03.2023)

Students are expected to have either completed the prerequisite course Mathematics B or possess the equivalent knowledge prior to enrolling in the course.

Basic knowledge of calculus (derivatives and integrals, ideally also for functions of two variables), basic elements of set logic (Venn diagrams) and combinatorics are recommended.
