Overview
Key Features
Statistical inference is the process of drawing conclusions about populations or scientific truths from data. There are many modes of performing inference including statistical modeling, data oriented strategies and explicit use of designs and randomization in analyses.
Furthermore, there are broad theories (frequentists, Bayesian, likelihood, design based, …) and numerous complexities (missing data, observed and unobserved confounding, biases) for performing inference. A practitioner can often be left in a debilitating maze of techniques, philosophies and nuance.
After taking this Statistical Inference course offered by Coursera in partnership with Johns Hopkins University, students will understand the broad directions of statistical inference and use this information for making informed choices in analyzing data.
