bulletEECE603: Biomedical Signal and Image Processing

A course that introduces the fundamentals of digital signal processing as implemented in biomedical applications. It provides a concise treatment of the tools utilized to describe deterministic and random signals as the basis of analyzing biological signals: data acquisition; imaging; denoising and filtering; feature extraction; modeling. The course is tightly coupled with a practical component as it looks at and assigns several laboratory projects. Examples include the auditory system, speech generation, electrocardiogram, neuronal circuits, and medical   imaging. Students should have reasonable software skills in Matlab.

 

bulletEECE663: System Identification

This course introduces the fundamentals of system identification as the basic mathematical tools to fit models into empirical input-output data. While rooted in control theory, applications extend to general time-series modeling and forecasting, such as stock prices, biological data and others. Topics covered include nonparametric identification methods: time and frequency response analysis; Parametric identification methods: prediction error methods, least squares, linear unbiased estimation and maximum likelihood; Convergence, consistency and asymptotic distribution of estimates; Properties and practical modeling issues: bias distribution, experiment design and model validation.

 

bulletEECE210: Electric Circuits

A course on fundamentals of electric circuits; basic elements and laws; techniques of circuit analysis: node voltage, mesh current, Thevenin, Norton, and source transformation; inductors, capacitors, mutual inductance, and transformers; transient response of RC, RL, and RLC circuits; steady state AC circuits; power calculations; circuit simulation using SPICE

 

bulletEECE340: Signals and Systems

This course covers basic concepts and methods related to continuous and discrete-time signals and systems. The course includes: signals and systems and their properties, linear time-invariant systems, stability analysis, sampling of continuous-time signals, z-transform, discrete Fourier transform, time and frequency domain representations of discrete-time signals and systems, and introductory concepts in communications.
