This course covers some important topics in statistical inference. Point Estimation: unbiasedness, consistency, efficiency, method of moments, maximum likelihood estimations, method of lower bounds, sufficiency and completeness. Testing of Hypotheses: determination of most powerful & uniformly most powerful tests, likelihood ratio tests. Interval Estimation: methods for finding confidence intervals, shortest length confidence intervals. (from nptel.ac.in)
