Course objectives
The seminar aims to enhance teaching subjects GSM monitoring systems I and II (UF/GSM01, UF/GSM02) and Medical diagnostic systems and medical data processing (UF/BM001). It will address selected methods of statistical processing and analyzing of monitored data. Given the focus of the seminar, the possibility of its wider use at several other fields of study offers. The lectures are supplemented by interactive computer demonstrations based on real data and cases.
Syllabus
  • 1. Introduction to statistical methodology. The content and meaning of statistics, population and sample, surveys, collection and processing of data, analysis and interpretation of results.
    2. Basics of the probability theory. Probability, random experiment, random event, independence, conditional probability, random variable discrete and continuous, probability distribution function (probability density function, PDF) and (cumulative) distribution function (CDF), the basic distribution.
    3. Characteristics of probability distributions and descriptive statistics. Moments, mean, variance, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis, another measures of variability, median, quantiles, modus, transformations of random variables, methods of graphical presentation.
    4. Basic of theory estimation. Point and interval estimation, unbiased and best unbiased estimate. Asymptotic properties of estimates, consistent estimation. Construction of point and interval estimate.
    5. Hypothesis testing. Methodology, statistical hypothesis, the null and alternative hypothesis, test statistics, the level of statistical significance, p-value, the error of first and second kind.
    6. Selected statistical tests. Parametric: Student's t-test, F-test, goodness-of-fit tests (chi square, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test), dependency analysis (contingency and association tables, Pearson coefficient), analysis of variance (ANOVA), post hoc analysis. Nonparametric: Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Spearman's rho, Kendall tau, test for dependent samples (Friedman test).
    7. Regression and correlation analysis. Model, model coefficients, linear regression model, point estimates, generalized linear regression.
    8. ROC analysis. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis as a tool for evaluation of classification and prediction models and to visualize their performance.

Teacher's information
For successful completion of the course, the student must obtain credit. Requirements for obtaining the credit is participation at least 80% of seminars, presentation of seminar contributions and approval of seminar project. Number of seminar contributions and other requirements shall be announced by teachers in early semester. Topics of seminar projects will be assigned during the semester. (Students can design your own theme and have them approved by the teacher. Especially welcome topics are those during processing of which the student actively practices his/her acquired knowledge in solving practical problems.)
The course is also listed under the following terms Summer 2014, Summer 2015, Summer 2017, Summer 2018, Summer 2019, Summer 2020.
