Statistique 1 (EN)

Objectif

This course presents the theoretical bases of statistical modelling, essentially in a parametric framework. Preference is given to the inferential approach, and we deal primarily with parameter estimation methods and their properties, particularly in terms of optimality (asymptotic or finite distance). 

Plan

General principles- The aims of statistics, the various approaches (inferential, Bayesian). Types of statistical models (parametric, semi- and non-parametric). Sampling, information given by a sample (Fisher, Kullback), statistics (exhaustive, free), exponential models.

Estimation- Estimation problem. Decision-making approach: admissibility. Eliminating estimation bias: optimality, Cramér-Rao bound, efficiency. Asymptotic estimation: maximum likelihood, moments method, asymptotic efficiency. Bayesian estimation: Bayes' formula, Bayes estimator, subjective and objective approaches.
