The objective of statistics is to make an inference about a population based on information contained in a sample. Most statistical inference procedures involve either estimation or hypothesis testing. This course looks at estimation.

The subject of differential equations constitutes a very important and useful branch of modern m mathematics. In this lesson we sh all consider some definition of ordinary differential equations.

In this lesson we will discuss regression and correlation. Correlation analysis deals with the association between two or more variables; while regression analysis attempts to establish the nature of the relationship between variables.

Skewness refers to lack of symmetry. A skewed distribution is a frequency distribution that is asymmetric (not symmetric). When the longer tail of a distribution extends to the right, it is said to be skewed to the right and when the longer tail of a distribution extends to the left, it said to be skewed to the left.

Cells are the body's smallest functional units they are grouped together to form tissues, each of which has specialized functions eg blood, muscles

The order of a differential equation is that of the highest derivative occurring in it; the degree of a differential equation is that to which the derivative of the highest order is raised when the equation is expressed in a rational integral form.

The paper presents application of data mining techniques to fraud analysis. We present some classification and prediction data mining techniques which we consider important to handle fraud detection. There exist a number of data mining algorithms and we present statistics-based algorithm, decision treebased algorithm and rule-based algorithm. We present Bayesian classification model to detect fraud in automobile insurance. Naïve Bayesian visualization is selected to analyze and interpret the classifier predictions. We illustrate how ROC curves can be deployed for model assessment in order to provide a more intuitive analysis of the models

Supply chain is the network of organizations that are involved through upstream and downstream linkages, in the different processes and activities that produce value in the form of product and services in the hands of the ultimate customers.

publics. In the analysis of the definition (i) it is” the planned and sustained effort” ,meaning that PR activity is organized as a campaign or program and is a continuous activity, it is not haphazard. (ii) Its purpose is “to establish and maintain mutual understanding” – that is, to ensure that the organization is understood by others. This mutual understanding is thus between an organization and its publics, since many groups of people are involved.

This course provides the student with an introduction to the basic elements of modern microeconomics. The course provides coverage of the institutional background and the history of significant microeconomic ideas and issues in Kenya and around the world. It will develop an understanding of how microeconomics relates to practical life. Students are expected to apply the knowledge in other economics units. The study employs extensive use of diagrams and mathematical expressions in the illustration of concepts.

Social Action, according to Max Weber, is action that takes others into account. At the individual or group level this refers to interpersonal influence: how people are affected by co-present others or the expectations associated with generalized others, so that they dress, talk, and act in predictable ways but social action also includes groups, organizations, and institutions, however, and influence within and across these levels of analysis.
