Learning outcome

KNOWLEDGE: The students shall get an overview of different methods for analysing data from processes that are continuous and/or time dependent, both for quantitative prediction and classification. They shall be able to plan practical experiments using statistical principles. This includes sensor-fusion and hierarchical modelling of multiblock data. SKILLS: The students shall be able to organize data form different types of measuring instruments, with different dimensions and consider optimal pretreatment of data. They shall be able to propose the most suitable methods given a specific application. GENERAL COMPETENCE: Be able to use knowledge and skills on new applications. Be able to discuss topics related to the course with specialists in the topics and propose which methods from the course to use in interdisciplinary projects.
