Course overview

This course covers an introduction to signal processing, from its traditional theoretical foundations in Fourier analysis and information theory, through to modern approaches involving deep learning and transformer-based models. It explores how modern deep learning both adheres to and extends the foundational mathematical theory of information, and develops students ability with practical signal processing techniques.

  • Foundations
  • Optimisation
  • Applications Of Deep Signal Processing

Course learning outcomes

  • Describe traditional and modern approaches to signal processing and connect these with the underlying mathematical principles
  • Demonstrate an understanding of how to represent and analyse signals using traditional and deep learning approaches
  • Demonstrate skills in analysing signals using computer programming of both traditional and modern techniques
  • Apply mathematical techniques to solve a variety of problems at an appropriate level of difficulty
  • Demonstrate skills in communicating about information theory and deep learning using mathematics
