Course description and aims
Statistical signal processing is an indispensable technology in processing of signal containing noise, and widely utilized in various fields, such as information communication, measurement and control systems, imaging, voice, and medical field.
Based on the knowledge of linear algebra and statistics learned in previous lectures, this course deals with the mathematical theory that is necessary for advanced signal and image processing.
Topics include the probabilistic model of noise, statistical meaning of least square estimate, maximum-likelihood estimation, Bayesian estimation, EM algorithm and linear dynamical systems.
Student learning outcomes
Through the lectures, the students will be able to:
1) Understand basis of statistical signal processing theory such as linear estimation method and maximum likelihood estimation.
2) Learn the parameter estimation technique for observation system containing statistical noise and be applied the technique to the information communication engineering research.
Keywords
