L1 - Introduction 1

The document discusses a course on statistical signal processing being taught online due to Covid-19. Last year's lectures by Dr. Jose Chilo will be used again this year. The course covers techniques like the discrete Fourier transform, filters, and adaptive filters. Exams include a midterm and final, as well as assignments. Applications of signal processing discussed include communications, radar, biomedicine, image processing, and speech processing.

Lecturers
Due to current Covid-19 situation, the course will only be delivered online this
year. Last year, the course was given by Dr. Jose Chilo. Therefore, we will be
using his Lecture recordings this year as well. However, students are welcomed
to contact us for any questions / explanations, etc., on below email addresses.

Course Book
Why this course
Signal processing plays a central role:
- new generations of mobile telecommunication
- intelligent automation systems
- the efficient transmission, reception,
decoding, organisation and retrieval of
information content in search engines
Why this course
Signal processing :
- analysis and modelling of signals
- extraction of information from signals
- classification and recognition of patterns
- synthesis and morphing of signals

Techniques and Methods


– DFT, filters, filter banks (signal analysis and
reconstruction)
– Statistical signal processing (parameter
estimation, detection)
– Adaptive filters, neural networks
– Analytical techniques (e.g. linear algebra,
optimization)
– DSP hardware, fast
algorithms/architectures (implementation)
Why this course
We consider mostly random signals:
- Signals described by statistical properties: mean, variance, correlation,
pdf, power spectrum
- Signals often modeled by filters
Prediction filters: minimize prediction error
Optimal filters (Wiener/Kalman): minimize mean square error
Adaptive filters (LMS/RLS)
- Estimation of signal properties via filter parameter estimation
Spectrum analysis
Estimation of frequencies

Applications of Digital Signal Processing
1. Communications - transmission and reception of digital information
2. Radar and sonar - target detection, localization, and tracking
3. Biomedicine - heart arrhythmia detection, brain computer interfaces
4. Image processing - medical diagnostic imaging, data compression
5. Speech processing - speech recognition and synthesis
6. Radio navigation - global positioning systems

Bio-medical signal processing is concerned with the analysis, denoising, synthesis


and classification of bio-signals such as magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the
brain or electrocardiograph (ECG) signals of the heart or electroencephalogram
(EEG) signals of brain neurons
