Annotation
In the course of subject "Experimental Data Analysis", students will acquire knowledge regarding fundamental methods for data analysis and machine learning for evaluation and interpretation of data. In the course of practical lectures, students will solve individual tasks using real data from signal processing in neuroscience research. In the course of semestral project, student will solve complex task and present obtained results. The aim of the subject is to introduce practical application of fundamental statistical methods as well as to teach students to use critical thinking and to acquire additional knowledge in solution of practical tasks.
