prerequisite
Knowledge
The course assumes knowledge of probability and statistics at least at the introductory course (KMA/PSA) level, more detailed knowledge of probability theory (KMA/TP) would be an advantage. The course also makes use of the apparatus of the other introductory mathematics courses (differential and integral calculus, matrices,...).
learning outcomes
To orientate oneself in treated properties of random processes, to be able to derive the results presented, to apply them in practical examples and draw practical conclusions.
