  • Includes Assessment
This course will cover the basics of anomaly detection and classification: for these tasks there are methods coming from either statistics or machine learning that are built on different principles. As well as the fundamentals of hypothesis testing, which is the formalization of scientific inquiry. This delicate statistical setup obeys a certain set of rules that will be explained and put in context with classification.
