Using the following links, you can get access to the text of the exam and the sketch of its solution:

- text of the 2025 exam;

- solution of the 2025 exam.

With the exam text, you will also receive the list of formulas for STK4011/STM9011 (2025). Therefore, you do not need to (and cannot) bring any printed documents with you.

Technically, you are allowed to bring an approved calculator, but it will be completely useless to solve any exercise.

The text of the Mandatory Assignment is now available, see mandatory assignment.

Deadline: 22nd of October, at 14:15 (right before the class).

Riccardo

Teaching takes place Mondays and Wednesdays, 14:15 - 16:00, starting Monday August 18. The lecturer is Riccardo de Bin. 

The course material will be built around the book-to-be "Statistical Inference: 600 Exercises, 100 Stories, and Solutions to All" (N.L. Hjort and E.Aa. Stoltenberg, Cambridge University Press). Preliminary versions for the Exercises, for Chapters 1-9, and for the Stories, are placed here on this course website, as PartOne and PartTwo, June 2025. These PartOne and PartTwo are rather voluminous, and only certain parts, carefully sampled, will be worked through and then define the curriculum for the course. As a rough guide, to be calibrated and fine-tuned, the course will have half of Chs. 1, 2; then good parts of Chs. 3, 4; then half of Ch 5 (but we jump over Ch 6), then a brief version of Ch 7 (since Bayes is taught in stk4021), a brief Ch 8, then good parts of Ch 9. 

More information will come, with certain datasets, with code...
