Objectives to cover:

  • Introduction to Probability and Its Importance : Probability provides a mathematical framework for understanding uncertainty and guiding decisions.

  • Classical vs. Modern Probability Theory : Classical probability is based on known outcomes, while modern theory handles complex and uncertain events.

  • Probability Distributions: Types and Applications : Various distributions model different real-world phenomena, from random events to large datasets.

  • Conditional Probability and Bayes’ Theorem : These concepts help update probabilities based on new information for more accurate predictions.

  • The Role of Probability in Decision Making : Probability aids in evaluating outcomes and choosing actions under uncertainty.

  • Markov Chains and Their Real-World Applications : Markov chains model systems that transition between states, useful in fields like economics and genetics.

  • The Use of Probability in Machine Learning Algorithms : Probabilistic models power algorithms in classification, prediction, and data inference.

  • Probability in Risk Management and Insurance : Risk assessment and premium calculation rely heavily on probabilistic analysis.

  • Challenges and Limitations of Applying Probability in Practice : Real-world complexity, data limitations, and assumptions can impact probabilistic accuracy.
