ABSTRACT
Statistical methods play a crucial role in measurement and data analysis, whether in research, natural sciences, or engineering applications. This lecture will provide an overview of both fundamental and advanced statistical techniques with direct application potential. Emphasis will be placed not only on theoretical foundations but also on the practical use of methods across various technical disciplines. Additionally, the lecture will cover commonly used software tools for data processing and analysis.
