Learning outcomes of the course unit
Students after completing the course should be able to solve problems associated with verification and testing assumptions and properties of the investigated phenomena and data files in the telecommunications field. The student is able to: (1) quantifying the probability of the event, (2) distinguishing between the random variables and describe their characteristics, (3) to test the hypothesis by parametric and non-parametric way, (4) describe the probability density by Gaussian mixture models, (5) estimating the shape of the spectrum and identify the spectral components, (6) identify and test the presence of a signal in noise.
