Probability Distributions-II (Theory) |
CO 89: Identify the behavior of the discrete population and sample and their distribution. CO 90: Derive the continuous probability distributions of random variables and use these techniques to differentiate data and fit in real life scenario. CO 91: Identify the behavior of the population having multiple variables and their distribution. CO 92: Analyze the behavior of the data and apply the appropriate test. CO 93: Translate real-world sample problems into probability distributions and give an appropriate inference. CO 94: Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction. |
Approach in teaching: Interactive Lectures, Group Discussion, Classroom Assignment Problem Solving Sessions
Learning activities for the students: Assignments Seminar Presentation Subject based Activities |
