Course Modules

This comprehensive course covers modules on introduction and expected values, the multivariate normal distribution, distributional results, and residuals. Gain practical knowledge and a deeper understanding of regression modeling.

Introduction and expected values

Welcome to the first module of the course, which focuses on introduction and expected values. This module provides an overview of multivariate expected values, variances, covariances, and their matrix operations, expected values of quadratic forms, and properties of least squares estimates. It also includes introductory videos and a course textbook for a comprehensive learning experience.

The multivariate normal distribution

The second module delves into the multivariate normal distribution, covering topics such as normals, singular normal distribution, normal likelihoods, conditional distributions, and a comprehensive introduction to the multivariate normal. This module also provides insight into the practical application of the multivariate normal distribution.

Distributional results

Module three focuses on distributional results, including chi squared results for quadratic forms, confidence intervals for regression coefficients, F distribution, prediction intervals, and confidence ellipsoids. It also includes coding examples to reinforce understanding and application of the distributional results in regression modeling.

Residuals

The final module covers residuals, including their distributional results, code demonstration, leave one out residuals, press residuals, and provides a comprehensive understanding of residuals in the context of regression modeling. This module concludes with a summary and thanks for taking the course.
