Learning outcomes
After passing this course the student will understand what statistical parameter estimation means, and how the methods can be applied in signal processing. Additionally, the basics of statistical detection theory will be covered.
Content
Content | Core content | Complementary knowledge | Specialist knowledge |
1. | Basic concepts of estimation. What is an estimator and how to compare their performance. Cramer-Rao lower bound for estimator variance. | ||
2. | Classical tools for estimation of a deterministic parameter: minimum variance unbiased estimator (MVUE), sufficient statistic, best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE), least squares estimator. | ||
3. | Sparse and regularized estimators: Ridge regression and the LASSO. Design of sparse classifiers via regularized logistic regression. | ||
4. | Estimation of nondeterministic parameters: the Bayesian approach. | ||
5. | Basic principles of detection theory: Likelihood ratio test, ROC curve. |
Evaluation criteria for the course
The final grade comes from the final exam. The grade is incremented by one if at least 50% of weekly exercises are done.
Assessment scale:
Numerical evaluation scale (1-5) will be used on the course
