Enrolment options

Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. 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, the student should be able to

  • Understand and explain the origin of bioelectrical signals and their relevance in clinical applications.
  • Explain sampling and acquisition of continuous-time bioelectrical signals and their conversion to discrete-time representations.
  • Analyse the properties of common deterministic and stochastic signal models, in particular sinusoidal and linear models.
  • Interpret and explain frequency and time-frequency representations of deterministic and stochastic signals originating from biological systems.
  • Formulate mathematical models for real bioelectrical signals and to design and implement processing methods such as smoothing, filtering, and denoising.
  • Use a computer language such as, e.g., Matlab, Python, or Julia, to implement signal processing operations for bioelectrical.
