Inhalte:
This course aims to provide students with basic and advanced knowledge in quantitative methods. Quantitative Methods II primarily focuses on the rapidly emerging field of statistical learning. Whereas classical quantitative methods specialize in recreating reality by employing predefined models, statistical learning offers the ability to let machines (computers) learn from data. The advocated methods should give the students the ability to apply the course content to own research projects.
The first part of the course consists of lectures and practical applications using Python (no previous knowledge with Python is required)
