Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

  • Solving and submitting solution of two home-works during the semester (7pts each, total 14pts) 
  • Half-semestral exam (15pts) 
  • Submission and presentation of project (20pts)
  • Semestral exam, 51pts, requirement of min. 17pts.

Aims

To refresh basic knowledge of signals and systems and to make students familiar with more advanced topics linked to artificial intelligence, cyber-physical systems, speech and sound processing and other related domains. To provide students with sufficient mathematical background allowing to understand conference and journal papers dealing with signal processing topics, and allowing for own independent work in signal processing. To provide students with sufficient practical knowledge for implementing and integrating signal processing algorithms.

Fundamentals seminar

13 hod., compulsory

Teacher / Lecturer

doc. Dr. Ing. Otto Fučík
M.Sc. Johan Andréas Rohdin, Ph.D.

Syllabus

Demonstration exercises (1h per week) immediately follow the lectures and demonstrate the taught techniques to the students based on real code, mostly in python and Matlab/Octave. All codes will be available to the students. Two homeworks (to be solved during the semester) are based on these exercises.

Project

13 hod., compulsory

Teacher / Lecturer

doc. Dr. Ing. Otto Fučík

Syllabus

The project is assigned in combination with another master course based on students specialization (for example in speech processing, or cyber-physical systems). It is solved in teams of up to 5 students, a report and short presentation are required. The data for projects will be provided, or acquired by the students. Examples of projects: 
  1. Simple signal processing for a microphone array  
  2. Estimation of transfer function of a mechanical system 
  3. Changing the properties of sound using time-frequency processing. 
  4. Sub-band audio coding.
