Objectives of the Course
This course aims to teach estimation methods for theorems and events. In addition; this course provides to better understand some topics in statistics such as measuring relation between variables as quantitatively, estimating parameters of models, testing of hypothesis and forecasting. An elementary knowledge of probability, statistics and matrix algebra is helpful to better understand this lecture. Thus, this course helps to students understanding of theory and application.
