# KV Basic Methods of Data Analysis Exam 2020/2021 ###### tags: `Exam` You are given the following set of univariate measurement data: X={3,5,6,9,2}. * Calculate the sample mean: * Calculate the median: * Calculate the sample variance: --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/hnyXxsF.png) A) Based on this answer the following: * What is the shortest preparation time? ... days * What longest preparation time? ... days * What is the lower quartile? ... days * What is the interquartile range? ... days * What is the median time? ... days B) How can a histogram of 16000 randomly drawn students, that respects the characteristics from the above boxplot, look like? Use a bin size of 0.5 days. Plot the density with the highest entropy, that fitts to the boxplot. This is the one that has "flattest" graph. In other words: assume that the distribution within every of the 4 quartiles is flat. "Draw" the histogram by deciding which number of students has to fit in the corresponding bins: * Bin between 0.5 and 1: 2000 students * Bin between 1 and 1.5: 2000 students * Bin between 1.5 and 2: 4000 students * Bin between 2 and 2.5: 2000 students * Bin between 2.5 and 3: 2000 students * Bin between 3 and 3.5: 1000 students * Bin between 3.5 and 4: 1000 students * Bin between 4 and 4.5: 1000 students * Bin between 4.5 and 5: 1000 students --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/DMMddYp.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/TlkAqhq.png) * What is the dimension of the column space of A? * What is the dimension of the row space of A? * What is the dimension of the kernel (=null space) ker(A)? * What is the rank of A? * Consider an element x∈ker(A) that assumes the value x1=4 on its first coordinate.

With 99.8% probability it yields a negative result for a person which is not infected. In total, 0.05% of all Austrian people are infected. Answer the following questions: * How many of 1000 tested people who are infected get a negative test result (false negative)? * How many out of 1000 non HIV-infected people wrongly get a positive result (false positive)? * A random person takes the test and its result is positive. How large is the probability that the person is not infected? Your answer should be a number between 0 and 1 rounded up to two decimals. --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/BfytCBJ.png) * Determine the value of the associated Maximum-Likelihood-estimator θ: --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/n5mh88q.png) * Compute the type I error she might make: * Compute the test score z= * What level p of the corresponding p-quantile does she have to look up in a table? p= * Assume that the desired quantile computes as 2.32. What is her decision about the null-hypothesis? --- Let A,B∈Rn×n and C=AB. Tick the correct statements. Select one or more: - [ ] a. The p-value gives the significance level, for which the test score z lies exactly on the border between accepting and rejecting $H_0$. - [ ] b. If the sample correlation coefficient r=−1 then all samples lie on a straight line with slope 1. - [ ] c. If A,B are positive definite, then the same holds for $\frac{A+B}{2}$. - [ ] d. If B is invertible, then rank(A)=rank( C ). - [ ] e. The determinant of 3A is 3 times the determinant of A. - [ ] f. The rank of C equals the sum of the rank of A and the rank of B. - [ ] g. If A is a projection matrix, it can only have {−1,1} as possible eigenvalues. - [ ] h. For two events A1 and A2 over a universe $Ω$ we always have $P(A1∪A2)=P(A1)+P(A2)$. # Retry ![](https://i.imgur.com/Hqvxkg8.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/GGaUUDv.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/1kM6z36.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/cgVcgy9.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/DdPjNe3.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/ZMPZgQ4.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/baZQCPb.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/Qt3PM1m.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/hvv5quk.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/2M0lERw.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/sFpzgxk.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/CoHrqDi.png) --- ![](https://i.imgur.com/f8ObXAV.png)
