Bayesian Statistics I

This masters course introduces basic concepts, ideas and methods of Bayesian inference. It is given in the late fall at Stockholm University as part of the masters programme and in the late spring at Linköping University (then under the name Bayesian Learning) as part of the master's course in the programme 'Statistics and Machine Learning'. The focus is on models and methods in the field of machine learning, but most of the course content is of general statistical interest.
The course will be in English.

Some asymptotic methods in statistical inference

The aim is to provide some theory concerning asymptotic methods of statistics and probability with applications to inference problems. Knowledge of measure theory is not needed. Basic convergence concepts and results (with proofs) such as the Lindeberg-Lévy central limit theorem should have been covered in previous courses.

Advanced Machine Learning

The course covers some advanced models in machine learning. 
The models are analyzed mainly from a Bayesian perspective. 
The course is also a master's course on the LiU programme 'Statistics and Machine Learning'.

The course is organized into four topics:
Graphical Models
Hidden Markov Models
Gaussian Process Regression and Classification
State-space models

Each topic includes lectures, a computer lab and a follow-up seminar.
