Dear all, I hope to send out one last reminder about the special topic course offered in this term: ECE499/CS499 Statistical Signal Processing (MW10:00-11:50am). This course is targeted for two groups of students: (i) Engineering students interested in learning about statistical inference methods (including machine learning) and how they are applied to solve various problems, and (ii) Computer Science students (interested in machine learning) who want to learn about the classical theory of statistical inference and the statistical perspective of machine learning (note that ML is essentially about making a statistical inference). Please see the attached flyer for more details. The prerequisites are basic background in probability (either ST314 or ECE353) and familiarity with Python or MATLAB. I would like to clarify that the knowledge of signals (or systems) is not required at all. CS students who took ST314 will have no difficulty at all in succeeding in this course. Please feel free to reach out to me (jinsub.kim@oregonstate.edu<mailto:jinsub.kim@oregonstate.edu>) if you have any questions. Best, Jinsub Kim
