Course description and aims
In the field of human-centric information systems, the instructor gives lectures on the topics include information processing, network, human interface, wave analysis, acoustic systems, signal processing, information theory, information processing system, and pattern recognition. The background science and hardware/software technologies related to information systems, and also the latest trends in this field, are introduced.
This course is aiming at overviewing the research, development, and use of human-centric information systems, as well as complehensively understanding the technologies that support those systems.
Student learning outcomes
By completing this course, students will be able to
(1) Have a comprehensive understanding of modern information system technology such as fundamentals on psychophysics, statistics, measurement engineering, display engineering, and human interface.
(2) Learn the background science and hardware/software technologies related to information systems, such as information processing, network, and human interface, together with the up-to-date trends in this field.
(3) Apply those knowledge to their own researches.
Keywords
Information processing, Network, Human interface, Wave analysis, Acoustic systems, Signal processing, Information theory, Information processing system, Pattern recognition
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | ✔ Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
In each class of this course, a lecturer engaged in the information and communication engineering introduces the technology and trends of human-centric information systems. An exercise is assigned to enhance students' understanding in every class. Most lectures will be given in person, but only the 11th lecture will be given online for better educational outcomes.
