Course objectives
The course aims to provide at-the edge statistical tools for exploring and analysing multimodal data. Using programming routines (R) it will introduce statistical methods for qualitatively and quantitatively testing experimental hypotheses.
- Oggetto:
Results of learning outcomes
Students will be able to exploit scientific analytic methods to query large multimodal datasets. They will use data analytics skills to provide constructive guidance in decision making. They will be able to interpret the results correctly with detailed and useful information.
