Learning Outcomes
After completing the course, the student is able to - discuss the fundamental concepts of signal processing and solve problems related to them, - use Matlab and computational methods to solve basic signal processing problems, - solve the properties of a linear filter through its transfer function and can design an FIR filter both by Matlab and manually using window design method, - implement the Fourier transform of a sequence both directly and using the FFT algorithm, - desing a digital system to convert the sampling rate, - design simple pattern recognition systems that use the signal processing tools for feature extraction.

Instructions for students on how to achieve the learning outcomes
Measures of learning: Exam and mandatory exercises with bonus points. The grade is determined by the exam and activity on weekly exercises. The weeksly exercises contain exercises on usage of tools (Matlab) and measures how well the student can use them. The exam measures how well the student has learned the core content.
Assessment scale:
Numerical evaluation scale (0-5)
