In this course we focus on statistical principles and quality concepts. Using these principles and notions and the corresponding properties in various models is the ultimate goal. Moreover we specialize the procedures to certain important, specific models. Important notions are: sufficiency and completeness, estimation and testing, optimality of statistical procedures, asymptotics and optimality, confidence intervals, contingency tables and some topics from nonparametric statistics.
