Please note that I will teach this course in English.
The textbook on which this course is based is:
James / Witten /Hastie / Tibshirani: An Introduction to Statistical Learning The textbook can be downloaded from: https://www.statlearning.com/
It is also necessary that you have basic familiarity with R You do not have to be experts but you should be able to:
- read data
- manipulate data
- create simple plots.
It would be extremely helpful if you know how to use square brackets [ ].
It is not necessary but it would be great if you alreday know how to:
- estimate regression models
- write loops
- can use conditionals (if, ifelse)
- work with apply and friends (tapply, sapply, ...)
If you are unfamiliar with R, you are, of course, also welcome to attend the course. But please work carefully through Chapter 2.3 in the aforementioned textbook.
