    Elementary decision theory; loss and risk functions, Bayes estimation; UMVU estimator, minimax estimators, shrinkage estimators. Hypothesis testing and confidence intervals: Neyman- Pearson theory; UMP tests and uniformly most accurate confidence intervals; use of unbiasedness and invariance to eliminate nuisance parameters. Large sample theory: basic convergence concepts; robustness; efficiency; contiguity, locally asymptotically normal experiments; convolution theorem; asymptotically UMP and maximin tests.

    The linear model: simple linear regression, polynomial regression, multiple regression, anova models; and with some extensions, orthogonal series regression, wavelets, radial basis functions, and MARS. Topics: normal theory inference (tests, confidence intervals, power), related distributions (t, chi-square, F), numerical methods (QR, SVD), model selection/regularization (Cp, AIC, BIC), diagnostics of model inadequacy, and remedies including bootstrap inference, and cross-validation. Emphasis is on problem sets involving substantial computations with data sets, including developing extensions of existing methods.
