Statistical Inference and Modeling for High-throughput Experiments at edX Course details
- This course is designed for those who want to learn about Statistical Inference and Modeling
- In this course participants learn various statistics topics including multiple testing problem, error rates, error rate controlling procedures, false discovery rates, q-values and exploratory data analysis
- Introduce statistical modeling and how it is applied to high-throughput data
- In particular, we will discuss parametric distributions, including binomial, exponential, and gamma, and describe maximum likelihood estimation
- Provide several examples of how these concepts are applied in next generation sequencing and microarray data
- Finally, we will discuss hierarchical models and empirical bayes along with some examples of how these are used in practice
