Explores the consistency and asymptotic properties of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator, including challenges in proving its consistency and constructing MLE-like estimators.
Explores linear regression from a statistical inference perspective, covering probabilistic models, ground truth, labels, and maximum likelihood estimators.
Introduces Bayesian estimation, covering classical versus Bayesian inference, conjugate priors, MCMC methods, and practical examples like temperature estimation and choice modeling.
Covers maximum likelihood estimation to estimate parameters by maximizing prediction accuracy, demonstrating through a simple example and discussing validity through hypothesis testing.
