Course detail

Dynamic and Multivariate Stochastic Models

FSI-9DVMAcad. year: 2019/2020

The course is intended for the students of doctoral degree programme and it is concerned with the modern stochastic methods (stochastic processes and their processing, multidimensional probability distributions, multidimensional linear and nonlinear regression analysis, correlation analysis, principal components method, factor analysis, discrimination analysis, cluster analysis) for modeling of dynamic and multidimensional problems gained at realization and evaluation of experiments in terms of students research work.
