Welcome to the course Statistical Inference 2024! These MyCourses pages will host the lecture plan, lecture slides, exercise assignments, and other material.
In the exercise sessions, we will be using R programming language and use R Studio Desktop as the graphical user interface for R.
Note that Introduction to R programming will be lectured as an intensive course on 20.1.-21.1. In case you are interested. See here: https://mycourses.aalto.fi/course/view.php?id=41928
You can also get assistance with the exercises in the Laskutupa (i.e., mathematics tutoring lab).

Course grading
The course grade (0-5) is determined by exercise points (30%) and exam points (70%). The exercise points are taken account of only for those who get at least 40% of the exam points. Others get grade 0. If one has no exercise points one must get at least 50% of the exam points to pass the course.
Note that the highest grade (5) can not be obtained without any exercise points. The reason for this is that learning to use R and learning to conduct statistical analysis in practice are essential learning goals of the course.
The exercise points are valid in all exams organized during the year 2024.
