Differential Equations Part II Series Solutions
This introductory courses on (Ordinary) Differential Equations are mainly for the people, who need differential equations mostly for the practical use in their own fields. So we try to provide basic terminologies, concepts, and methods of solving various types of differential equations as well as a rudimentary but indispensable knowledge of the underlying theory and some … [Read more...] about Differential Equations Part II Series Solutions
Greedy Algorithms, Minimum Spanning Trees, and Dynamic Programming
The primary topics in this part of the specialization are: greedy algorithms (scheduling, minimum spanning trees, clustering, Huffman codes) and dynamic programming (knapsack, sequence alignment, optimal search trees). … [Read more...] about Greedy Algorithms, Minimum Spanning Trees, and Dynamic Programming
Mathematical Biostatistics Boot Camp 1
This class presents the fundamental probability and statistical concepts used in elementary data analysis. It will be taught at an introductory level for students with junior or senior college-level mathematical training including a working knowledge of calculus. A small amount of linear algebra and programming are useful for the class, but not required. … [Read more...] about Mathematical Biostatistics Boot Camp 1
Algebra: Elementary to Advanced – Equations & Inequalities
This course is intended for students looking to create a solid algebraic foundation of fundamental mathematical concepts from which to take more advanced courses that use concepts from precalculus, calculus, probability, and statistics. This course will help solidify your computational methods, review algebraic formulas and properties, and apply these concepts model real world … [Read more...] about Algebra: Elementary to Advanced – Equations & Inequalities
