16th FEBRUARY- 1st MARCH, 2009

Download Course Catalogue
 
INTRODUCTION
This course presents the theory and applications of digital signal, speech and image processing with MATLAB. Numerous examples and practical hand-on exercises are included in the course. One major topic of digital signal/ speech/ image processing is covered in each lecture, typically consisting of a discussion of the basic theoretical concepts and some examples illustrating practical problems and their solutions. The lectures will provide a practical learning experience.
For this course the target groups are the teachers from Engineering Colleges belonging to Electronics, Electrical, Computer, Mechanical and Mechatronics disciplines. The objective of this course is to introduce the trainee-teachers the recent developments in this field so that the latest technologies will in-turn pass on to the younger mass (students) and to initiate research in the fast growing signal processing field.
