Healthy Urban systems Part 2 : Theories, models and tools (Coursera)

Offered by University of Lausanne,

This MOOC is the second part (out of three parts) of the whole MOOC on Healthy Urban Systems. These PART II is very recommended (but not obliged) to take after the PART I and before the PART III. Once you understood the main concepts and visions of Urban Health, and the best practices of observation in PART I, you are ready to think about theories and to practice models for this PART II.

This PART II lasts 4 weeks, comprising two modules of 2 weeks each. The number of credits is 2 ECTS. To obtain these credits, you should achieve all the statements required each week. The final elaboration of a model (in the Holistic System Analysis & Modelling© software) on your proper urban health question, will be specifically evaluated.

What you'll learn

Theories of complexity
Different Methods of Modelling: individual (ABM)aggregated (Dynamic systems)
Practice of Holistic Systems Modeling

A focus on the techniques commonly used to perform statistical inference on high throughput data. In this course you’ll learn various statistics topics including multiple testing problem, error rates, error rate controlling procedures, false discovery rates, q-values and exploratory data analysis. We then introduce statistical modeling and how it is applied to high-throughput data. In particular, we will discuss parametric distributions, including binomial, exponential, and gamma, and describe maximum likelihood estimation.

Modeling Time Series and Sequential Data (Coursera)

Statistics & Data Analysis Data Science

In this course you learn to build, refine, extrapolate, and, in some cases, interpret models designed for a single, sequential series. There are three modeling approaches presented. The traditional, Box-Jenkins approach for modeling time series is covered in the first part of the course. This presentation moves students from models for stationary data, or ARMA, to models for trend and seasonality, ARIMA, and concludes with information about specifying transfer function components in an ARIMAX, or time series regression, model. A Bayesian approach to modeling time series is considered next.

Optimization is a common form of decision making, and is ubiquitous in our society. Its applications range from solving Sudoku puzzles to arranging seating in a wedding banquet. The same technology can schedule planes and their crews, coordinate the production of steel, and organize the transportation of iron ore from the mines to the ports. Good decisions in manpower and material resources management also allow corporations to improve profit by millions of dollars.
