FIN-525: Financial big dataThe course introduces modern methods to acquire, clean, and analyze large quantities of financial data efficiently. The second part expands on how to apply these techniques and robust statistics to fi
EE-411: Fundamentals of inference and learningThis is an introductory course in the theory of statistics, inference, and machine learning, with an emphasis on theoretical understanding & practical exercises. The course will combine, and alternat
PHYS-432: Quantum field theory IIThe goal of the course is to introduce relativistic quantum field theory as the conceptual and mathematical framework describing fundamental interactions such as Quantum Electrodynamics.
MATH-442: Statistical theory-This course gives a mostly rigourous treatment of some statistical methods outside the context of standard likelihood theory.
MATH-240: StatisticsCe cours donne une introduction au traitement mathématique de la théorie de l'inférence statistique en utilisant la notion de vraisemblance comme un thème central.
COM-406: Foundations of Data ScienceWe discuss a set of topics that are important for the understanding of modern data science but that are typically not taught in an introductory ML course. In particular we discuss fundamental ideas an
MGT-301: Foundations in financial economicsThe aim of this course is to expose EPFL bachelor students to some of the main areas in financial economics. The course will be organized around six themes. Students will obtain both practical insight
PHYS-512: Statistical physics of computationThe students understand tools from the statistical physics of disordered systems, and apply them to study computational and statistical problems in graph theory, discrete optimisation, inference and m
FIN-403: EconometricsThe course covers basic econometric models and methods that are routinely applied to obtain inference results in economic and financial applications.
MATH-441: Robust and nonparametric statisticsIn the decades from 1930 to 1950, many rank-based statistics were introduced. These methods were received with much interest, because they worked under weak conditions. Starting in the late 1950, a th
