ECE 379: Introduction to Signals and Information Processing
2009 Spring Semester

ECE 379 is a gentle introduction to the fascinating world of signals and information processing.  Learn about the algorithms and mathematical foundations that underpin how signals are acquired, analyzed and processed in applications ranging from MP3 players to brain imaging using MRI.  We will explore signal processing not only with mathematics, but also through hands-on experiments with real-world signals.

Open to all students with a basic mathematics background.
