Long Title: FUNCTIONAL DATA AND WAVELETS

Department: Statistics

Grade Mode: Standard Letter

Course Type: Lecture

Credit Hours: 3

Prerequisite(s): STAT 431 AND STAT 410

Description: Statistical methods for functional data, with emphasis on non-parametric bases representations, such as wavelets.
