  • AMat 367/367Z: Discrete Probability

    3.00 Credits
    SUNY at Albany

    Introduction to discrete probability models (including the binomial, negative binomial, Poisson, and hypergeometric distributions, their means, variances and cumulative distribution functions).? Other topics include probability axioms, equally likely sample spaces (combinatorics), conditional probability, the gamblers' ruin problem, finite state Markov chains, moment generating functions, joint distributions (including the multinomial distribution), marginal distributions, conditional distributions, covariance and correlation, the weak law of large numbers, and, if time permits, the Central Limit Theorem. Students who intend to take A Mat 363 should take A Mat 362, not A Mat 367.? Students who have taken A Mat 367 and who wish to take a first statistics course can take A Mat 308.?Actuarial students who need continuous as well as discrete probability, should take A Mat 362 (which constitutes substantial preparation for Actuarial Exam P).?A Mat 367Z is the writing intensive version of A Mat 367; only one may be taken for credit. Prerequisite(s): A Mat 113 or 119 plus 6 credits at the 200 or higher level in either mathematics or computer science.

  • AMat 369: Statistics and Data Analysis

    3.00 Credits
    SUNY at Albany

    A topics course whose content will vary somewhat from semester to semester. In the recent past the course has focused on analysis of variance, categorical data analysis, distribution free methods and survey sampling. Other possible topics include Bayesian statistics, bootstrap methods, log-linear models, lifetime distributions, Meier-Kaplan estimators and the Mantel-Haenszel test.? Topics covered in Math 465 (multiple regression and time series) would be avoided. May be repeated for credit with permission of instructor. Prerequisite(s): A Mat 363.
