The sessions will be combined lectures and lab sessions. It is essential that you bring your laptops. Please charge batteries before you arrive. There are not enough mains sockets for everyone.
If we have technical problems wiht network or computers, we may move to one of the SEPS lab for lab work between 12-1pm.
are office hours, when I will be available in my office to answer questions about CSM25 or other issues.
For appointments at other times, please email me.
Copies of the slides will be available on programme page. You may print them if you want to; they will not be printed for you.
The slides are divided into chapters which do not exactly correspond to sessions. I hope to run about 1½ chapter per week.
There will be a set of exercises with each chapter of slides. We will discuss exercises and solutions in class, but you will be expected to work on the exercises between sessions as well.
Most of the exercise material is likely to appear in coursework or exams. If you can do all the exercises well, you are unlikely to fail the exam.
Computer-related information and hints, which I think you may find useful, will be collected on the software page.
The syllabus is defined by lectures and exercises. There is no adequate textbook, though the reading list will give some ideas for useful reading.
The lecture notes will sometimes refer to papers, especially for the most technical material. These papers should be considered as core reading.
To be announced.
I expect to give to assignments; one will be set such that I can give feedback before Easter holiday. The second will have deadline after Easter, but such that I can mark it before the exams.
The exercises will assume that you use Matlab. I may allow you to use other languages or systems, but only by prior agreement. If you want to use something else, please ask.
