Advanced Statistics for Data Science Specialization by John Hopkins University – Coursera
This is a Coursera-based specialized course. The early modules of the certification program include essential ideas in probability and statistics. A mathematical statistics bootcamp is also available, which covers the principles and methodologies utilized in biostatistics. In addition, the students will learn about advanced linear modeling principles, data science modeling tools, least-square and linear regression, hypothesis testing, likelihood concepts, and distribution. The students will then dive into the practical implementations of the models in order to execute multivariate regression using the R programming language. In addition, the course provides a solid foundation in linear algebraic needs for data science and the mathematical perspective of linear statistical models.
The curriculum includes:
- Mathematical biostatistics boot camp 1 and 2
- Advanced linear models for data science
- Least-squares
- Statistical linear models
