Course description and aims
Stochastic differential equations are fundamental tools for describing dynamics of irregulaly varying functions, and are applied to many areas. This course aims to get students to learn the fundamental theory and computational methods for estimations and controls of stochastic differential equations.
Student learning outcomes
By the end of this course, students will be able to bulid models and compute optimal controls of stochastic differential equations, and moreover to explain the validity, limitation, and development of the methods used there.
Keywords
Martingales, Stochastic integration, Stochastic differential equations, diffusion processes, Estimation of stochastic processes, Control of stochastic processes, Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
