Prerequisites
General Prerequisites
Prior exposition to an introductory course on probabilities and statistics, signals and systems, and digital signal processing facilitates creating insight and faster grasping of the concepts introduced.
Learning Outcomes
Cognitive: Acquaintance with randomness and its impact in signal transmission; image, speech, and audio processing; language processing. Thorough grasp of the concepts of random variable, random vector, stochastic signal, moments of random variables with emphasis on the autocorrelation. Augmenting and revising linear system theory so that it allows for the analysis of linear systems excited by stochastic signals. Skills: Promoting analytical and programming skills in signal processing. Building the foundations for undertaking advanced studies in image, speech, audio, and biomedical signal processing as well as further reading in pattern recognition and statistical learning theory. Programming applications to speech, music, and telecommunications in MATLAB.
General Competences
  • Apply knowledge in practice
  • Retrieve, analyse and synthesise data and information, with the use of necessary technologies
  • Adapt to new situations
  • Make decisions
  • Work autonomously
  • Generate new research ideas
  • Advance free, creative and causative thinking
Course Content (Syllabus)
Probability theory. Repeated trials. Random variables. Functions of random variables. Joint statistics. Moments and conditional statistics. Stochastic signals. Basic categories of stochastic signals (Gaussian, Markov, Stationary, Ergodic) . Statistical auto-correlation and cross-correlation function.

Student Assessment
Description
Students are graded taking into account their achievements in the compulsory home-work assigned to them, their attendance and active participation in the lectures and tutorials, and the assessment of the mid-term and final progress exams. Compulsory homework includes solving two problems per chapter of Papoulis’ textbook taught and working out two computer-based projects in MATLAB assigned to each student during the semester. During the mid-term and final progress exams, students are requested to provide short answers in 10-15 questions/problems covering the topics taught in the course. Homework assignment and deadlines are announced in the course web page at http://pileas.csd.auth.gr. Students pass the course, if their total grade is greater than on equal to five (5). Details on the grading procedure are announced in the course web page, which supersede any prior arrangement.
