The course covers modern nonparametric statistical methods. Topics include: density estimation, multiple regression, adaptive smoothing, cross-validation, bootstrap, classification and regression trees, nonlinear discriminant analysis, projection pursuit, the ACE algorithm for time series prediction, support vector machines, and neural networks. The course will provide the mathematical underpinnings, but it will also touch upon some applications in computer vision/speech recognition, and biological, neural, and cognitive sciences. Prerequisite: APMA 2670
