TMA4300 - Computer Intensive Statistical Methods - Spring 2013

*Thiago got an appointment for knee surgery and I am away next week. You may ask Geir-Arne Fuglstad (12 floor) to help with questions.

• Exercise C (last parts) have not really been covered in the lectures. Thus, it will not be graded very seriously. One idea is to look at classification based on mean or variance measures in the classes/groups, and use this to classify data in the hold-out set.

• Questions lecture : May 14, 10-12 in R10.
• Exam is May 16, 9-13
• NOTE: No lectures in Easter break (25 March - 2 April). We start again Monday 8 April.
• Lectures in Part III:
  • Monday 8 April, 1515-1700, R3
  • Tuesday 9 April, 1015-1200, R10
  • Monday 15 April, 1515-1700, R3
  • Tuesday 16 April, 1015-1200, R10
  • Monday 22 April, 1515-1700, R3
  • Tuesday 23 April, 1015-1200, R10

• * Reference group discussion:
  • Lectures and exercises are satisfactory. Students got useful assistance during exercise.
  • More code/repetition slides could be put on web-page.
  • Book is hard to read. Perhaps change next year?
  • Summary of IMPORTANT parts of curriculum would be helpful.

• The first lecture is Tuesday January 15, 10:15-12:00 in R10 (Realfagbygget, Gløshaugen). Welcome! During this lecture the schedule will be defined in more detail!
