Course Description:

This course offers a hands-on, practical introduction to the principles of Probability and Statistics, with a strong
emphasis on practical implementation. It covers descriptive statistics, probability theory, random variables,
probability distributions, inferential statistics, and hypothesis testing. Students will not only learn theoretical
concepts but will also apply these ideas through programming and real-time data analysis. Equipping students
with the tools and techniques to analyze, visualize, and interpret data in real-world scenarios. The course is
designed to bridge the gap between statistical, probabilistic theory and its application in areas like Machine
Learning, Data Analytics, and Data Science.

Syllabus:

Module 1: Descriptive Statistics (2-3 Weeks)

● Measures of Central Tendency: Mean, Median, Mode, Weighted Mean


● Measures of Dispersion: Variance, Standard Deviation (SD), Range
● Interquartile Range (IQR), Coefficient of Variation (CV)
● Shape of Data: Skewness (Left Skewed, Right Skewed), Kurtosis (Flat vs. Peaked)
● Relationship Between Variables: Correlation (Pearson, Spearman), Covariance
● Data Summarization using Frequency Tables, Percentiles, and Quartiles.

Module 2: Visualization Techniques and Probability (3-4 Weeks)

● Data Visualization: Histogram, Bar Chart, Pie Chart, Box Plot, Scatterplot
● Probability Basics: Sample Space, Events, Probability Laws (Addition, Multiplication)
● Conditional Probability and Marginal Probability
● Mutually Exclusive and Independent Events
● Bayes' Theorem, the Law of Total Probability
● Frequentist vs Bayesian Probability

Module 3: Random Variables and Probability Distributions (4 Weeks)

● Random Variables: Discrete and Continuous


● Discrete Distributions: Bernoulli Distribution, Binomial Distribution, Geometric Distribution, Poisson
Distribution
● Continuous Distributions: Uniform Distribution, Normal Distribution, Exponential Distribution
● Standard Normal Distribution: Z-scores, Normal Tables
● Probability Mass Function, Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) for Discrete and Continuous
Random Variables.
● Expectation: Properties, Expected Value Rule, Linearity of Expectation.
● Applications of Probability Distributions to real-life scenarios

Module 4: Inferential Statistics (4 Weeks)

● Sampling Techniques: Simple Random Sampling, Stratified Sampling
● Hypothesis Testing: Null and Alternative Hypotheses, Type I and Type II Errors
● p-Values and Significance Levels (α)
● Confidence Intervals (CI): Confidence Level, Margin of Error
● Law of Large Numbers (LLN) and its implications in statistical inference

Module 5: Inference Procedures, Regression Analysis, and Chi-Square Tests (3 Weeks)

● Paired Sample t-Test: For related data samples
● Analysis of Variance (ANOVA): Comparing means across multiple groups
● Simple and Multiple Linear Regression: Model fitting, R², Coefficients interpretation
● Chi-Square Tests: Goodness of Fit Test, Test of Independence
● Residual Analysis: Evaluating regression models' assumptions and fit
