Course Objectives:

The course objective is to let the student obtain
1) the capability of identifying the engineering problems that can be put into the frame of statistical signal processing,
2) the capability of solving the identified problems using the standard techniques learned through this course, and
3) the fundamental understanding of statistical signal processing that may help them study advanced topics and consequently make significant contributions to the theory and the practice of statistical signal processing.

Course Requirements:

1. 1st midterm exam (10/17 Wed., 7:30pm-12 pm, LG 104)

15 %

2. 2nd midterm exam (11/22 Th., 7:30pm-12 pm, LG 104)

20 %

3. Final exam (12/17 Mon., 7:30pm-12pm, LG 104)

25 %

4. Quiz

30 %

5. Participation

10 %

100 %

In each exam, a student is allowed to bring an A4-size crib sheet written on both sides.

Course participation is graded subjectively by the instructor based on the class attendance rate, active participation in discussions, office hour visiting, voluntary projects, etc.

Grading Policies for Exam

1.      Students may take exams earlier than the original schedule if he/she requests at least one week earlier.

2.      Excused class absence on an exam day may lead to a make-up exam for the absentee.

3.      Re-grade requests must be filed in writing within one week after the graded exam has been returned to students.

4.      Each sub-problem will be graded according to the following scale: 100%, 60%, 20%, and 0%.

Policy on Academic Dishonesty

If the instructor suspects academic dishonesty, the instructor will notify the student(s) and follow the procedure to report to the Graduate School without any exception. Students have the responsibility to be knowledgeable about the consequences of dishonesty.
