DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING

The course has the following methods of examination:

DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING module:
The grading of the expected knowledge and skills is based on two contributions: 1. a closed book WRITTEN EXAM, where the student must solve four problems, needed to verify that a good knowledge of the theoretical aspects and of the fundamental characteristics of the various digital signal processing systems analyzed during the course has been acquired; 2. the development of a simple HOMEWORK consisting in a computer simulation project using Matlab, to check the ability of the student to apply the theoretical concepts to a practical implementation. Each student must write a short report describing the methodologies used to solve the assigned homework and the obtained results.

E-HEALTH module:
For ATTENDING STUDENTS the verification of the expected knowledge and skills is carried out with: 1. an ORAL EXAM (individual assessment) with few questions to test the knowledge of the whole course program; 2. a simple PROJECT (5-6 pages) on a selected topic to be agreed with the teacher; the project is presented in about 15 minutes (using slides) during the oral exam; 3. a two-pages report at the end of each LAB EXPERIENCE. Projects and lab experiences are carried out either individually or in pairs at the discretion of the teacher.

For NON-ATTENDING STUDENTS the verification of the expected knowledge and skills is carried out with: 1. an ORAL EXAM (individual assessment) with few questions to test the knowledge of the whole course program; 2. a more complex PROJECT on a selected topic to be agreed with the teacher; the project requires both a theoretical part and a Matlab-based part in order to test the abilities developed by the attending students during laboratories; the project is presented in about 15 minutes (using slides) during the oral exam.

The final grade of the course is expressed as a combination of the judgments in the two modules (50%+50%).
