Exercise 1

Describe the key differences between parameteric and nonparametric approaches to data analysis.

Exercise 2

Discuss the similarities and differences between a frequentist confidence interval and a Bayesian credible region. It will help to define both.

Exercise 3

Discuss the similarities and differences between a p-value obtained in a frequentist null hypothesis significance test to a Bayesian odds ratio. Again, it will help to define both.
