However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

After completing the course:

  1. The student understands the basic linear techniques for biomedical signal processing from a fundamental and intuitive geometrical perspective.
  2. The student can give a basic description of commonly used non-linear techniques and knows when to prefer them to linear techniques.
  3. Given a scientific question and biomedical measurement, the student can select and apply suitable techniques and contribute to data analysis at various stages.
  4. The student recognizes the risk of overinterpreting the results of an analysis.
