Univariate Distributions

  • A cartoon suitable for use in teaching about how the precision of measurements propagate when mathematical operations are applied to them . The cartoon is number 295 (April, 2020) from the webcomic series at xkcd.com created by Randall Munroe.

  • Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) is a comprehensive, structured, and logical analysis method aimed at identifying and assessing risks in complex technological systems for the purpose of cost-effectively improving their safety and performance. NASA’s objective is to better understand and effectively manage risk, and thus more effectively ensure mission and programmatic success, and to achieve and maintain high safety standards at NASA. This PRA Procedures Guide, in the present second edition, is neither a textbook nor an exhaustive sourcebook of PRA methods and techniques. It provides a set of recommended procedures, based on the experience of the authors, that are applicable to different levels and types of PRA that are performed for aerospace applications.

  • The objective of this course is to learn and apply statistical methods for the analysis of data that have been observed over time.  Our challenge in this course is to account for the correlation between measurements that are close in time. Perfect for students and teachers wanting to learn/acquire materials for this topic.

  • The focus of this class is a multivariate analysis of discrete data. We will learn basic statistical methods and discuss issues relevant for the analysis of some discrete distribution, cross-classified tables of counts, (i.e., contingency tables), success/failure records, questionnaire items, judge's ratings, etc. Being familiar with matrix algebra is helpful in completing this course.  Perfect for students and teachers wanting to learn/acquire materials for this topic.
