Programme de cours : ce que vous apprendrez dans ce cours
Week 1: Introduction to time series and the AR(1) process
This module defines stationary time series processes, the autocorrelation function and the autoregressive process of order one or AR(1). Parameter estimation via maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference in the AR(1) are also discussed.
Week 2: The AR(p) process
This module extends the concepts learned in Week 1 about the AR(1) process to the general case of the AR(p). Maximum likelihood estimation and Bayesian posterior inference in the AR(p) are discussed.
Week 3: Normal dynamic linear models, Part I
Normal Dynamic Linear Models (NDLMs) are defined and illustrated in this module using several examples. Model building based on the forecast function via the superposition principle is explained. Methods for Bayesian filtering, smoothing and forecasting for NDLMs in the case of known observational variances and known system covariance matrices are discussed and illustrated.
Week 4: Normal dynamic linear models, Part II
À propos du Spécialisation Statistiques bayésiennes
This Specialization is intended for all learners seeking to develop proficiency in statistics, Bayesian statistics, Bayesian inference, R programming, and much more. Through four complete courses (From Concept to Data Analysis; Techniques and Models; Mixture Models; Time Series Analysis) and a culminating project, you will cover Bayesian methods — such as conjugate models, MCMC, mixture models, and dynamic linear modeling — which will provide you with the skills necessary to perform analysis, engage in forecasting, and create statistical models using real-world data.
