In this module, we will turn our attention to generalized least squares (GLS). GLS is a statistical method that extends the ordinary least squares (OLS) method to account for heteroscedasticity and serial correlation in the error terms. Heteroscedasticity is the condition where the variance of the errors is not constant across all levels of the predictor variables, while serial correlation is the condition where the errors are correlated across time or space. GLS has many practical applications, such as in finance for modeling asset returns, in econometrics for modeling time series data, and in spatial analysis for modeling spatially correlated data. By the end of this module, you will have a good understanding of how GLS works and when it is appropriate to use it. You will also be able to implement GLS in R using the gls() function in the nlme package.

This week, we will be exploring the concept of cross-validation, a crucial technique used to evaluate and compare the performance of different statistical learning models. We will explore different types of cross-validation techniques, including k-fold cross-validation, leave-one-out cross-validation, and stratified cross-validation. We will discuss their strengths, weaknesses, and best practices for implementation. Additionally, we will examine how cross-validation can be used for model selection and hyperparameter tuning.

For our final module, we will explore bootstrapping. Bootstrapping is a resampling technique that allows us to gain insights into the variability of statistical estimators and quantify uncertainty in our models. By creating multiple simulated datasets through resampling, we can explore the distribution of sample statistics, construct confidence intervals, and perform hypothesis testing. Bootstrapping is particularly useful when parametric assumptions are hard to meet or when we have limited data. By the end of this week, you will have an understanding of bootstrapping and its practical applications in statistical learning.

Foire Aux Questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
