Course objectives
The main goal of the course is to become familiar with interpolation and smoothing using one- and multivariate splines, outlier detection with applications to electrocardiology, electroencephalography, shape analysis (geometrical morphometrics) on biological objects, statistical analyses of multivariate data, testing of multivariate statistical hypotheses, multivariate SVD models (e.g. generalized PCA), 2D/3D statistical visualisation and implementation to R language.
Learning outcomes
Student will be able:
- to understand principles of spline interpolation and smoothing for curves and surfaces;
- to build up and explain suitable model for curves and surfaces;
- to apply spline interpolation and smoothing to real data;
- to implement methods of spline interpolation and smoothing to R.
