Learning Outcomes
The student will be able to use Matlab for processing signals and data using modern methodologies. He can also produce 2D and 3D visualizations to be included in scientific reports. After completing the course: (1)The student is familiar with Matlab environment, is able to input and output data in various formats, and can run Matlab functions. (2) The student is familiar with the programming language constructions in Matlab and can implement simple routines. (3) The student is able to produce 2D and 3D plots, and annotate them along scientific publication standards. (4) The student is familiar with the general structure of toolboxes; in particular with the Signal Processing toolbox, the Image Processing toolbox and the Statistics toolbox.
