Basic knowledge of Elementary Statistics, Linear Algebra, Analysis, and Probability.
Out of many nice texts in the market, here is a short list of some recommended books (in alphabetical order). These books have different scope and a rather low level of mathematical rigor. Each covers most of the topics discussed in the course.

The first part of the course will cover basic elements of statistical modeling such as regression point and interval estimation as well as hypothesis testing.
The second part will deal with linear models, e.g., least squares and generalizations.
The third part introduces semi- and nonparametric methods.
There will be a
midterm exam on June 10, 2010, R2-149, 10.30-11.00 h
and a final exam on
MONDAY, July 19, 2010, 14.00-15.00h (be there at least 10 minutes in advance), ROOM W9-109.
Oral exams for those who require this kind of exam will be dated (around the final exam time) by appointment.
