Workshops

Parameter & Process Risk

The terms Parameter risk and Process risk refer to the variability in forecasts that comes from the model itself versus the variability that comes from the process we are modeling. We show how bootstrapping and refitting are used to measure the variability of any model.

August 14 | 8:00 am to 9:30 am ET

Review

We review major threads that run through the material such as the construction of distributions and their use in hypothesis testing, differential calculus and the construction of linear and logistic regression, matrix algebra and the modeling of systems.
