MA4155 Applied Probability and Statistics for Manufacturing Engineering Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
1. To understand the basics of random variables with emphasis on the standard discrete and continuous distributions.
2. To understand the basic probability concepts with respect to two dimensional random variables along with the relationship between the random variables.
3. To apply the small and large sample tests through test of hypothesis.
4. To understand the basic concepts of sampling distributions and statistical properties of point estimators.
5. To understand the concept of analysis of variance and use it to investigate factorial dependence.
UNIT I PROBABILITY AND RANDOM VARIABLES
Probability – Axioms of probability – Conditional probability – Baye’s theorem – Random variables – Probability function – Moments – Moment generating functions and their properties – Binomial, Poisson, Geometric, Uniform, Exponential, Gamma and Normal distributions – Function of a random variable.
UNIT II TWO DIMENSIONAL RANDOM VARIABLES
Joint distributions – Marginal and conditional distributions – Functions of two dimensional random variables – Regression curve – Correlation.
UNIT III TESTING OF HYPOTHESIS
Sampling distributions – Type I and Type II errors – Tests based on Normal, t, Chi square and F distributions for testing of mean, variance and proportions – Tests for independence of attributes and goodness of fit.
UNIT IV ESTIMATION THEORY
Interval estimation for population mean – Standard deviation – Difference in means, proportion ratio of standard deviations and variances.
UNIT V DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS
Completely randomized design – Randomized block design – Latin square design – 22 Factorial design.
COURSE OUTCOMES:
At the end of the course, students will be able to
1. Analyze the performance in terms of probabilities and distributions achieved by the determined solutions.
2. Be familiar with some of the commonly encountered two dimensional random variables and be equipped for a possible extension to multivariate analysis.
3. Apply the basic principles underlying statistical inference(hypothesis testing).
4. Demonstrate knowledge of applicable large sample theory of estimators and tests.
5. Obtain a better understanding of the importance of the methods in modern industrial processes.
