Statistical Applications With Modern Techniques (COMP555)

Credit: 3 | Lecture Hour (hrs/week): 0 | Lab (hrs/week​): - | Tutorial (hrs/week): 0 | ECTS: - 

Regression analysis is a widely used suite of analytical techniques particularly suited to natural resources data. One of the strengths of regression is the conceptual simplicity of using an equation to represent a relationship between predictor variables and their associated response. This is also a weakness: drum into your mind the phrase “correlation does not imply causation” and you'll overcome (part of) this weakness. The goal in this course is to give you some experience with basic regression techniques that you can apply in your research, expose you to situations where regression analysis is useful (and perhaps not useful), and most of all give you enough understanding that you can evaluate regression in papers your read. The course is going to focus on underlying theory and also use of some selected software packages to for regression. However, also you need to know enough about how regression works to be able to evaluate a regression solution in a particular research situation.
