Term project information

Resources:

  • Overview of the course
  • Course syllabus
  • Chapters from the textbook and other material of interest
  • Answers to diagnostic quiz. 1 class participation point for turning it in; 2 for great performance. (Remember that there are 120 possible class participation points, so this will not make or break your grade!)
  • Answers to first participation exercise on 02-03.
  • Answers to first participation exercise on 02-10.
  • Answers to first participation exercise on 02-17. For the last part of the 2nd exercise, there are several alternatives:
  • Use a double for loop to perform the addition.
  • Add shifts of the image. For example, to average each pixel of P with the one to its right:
    Pa = P;
    Pa(:,1:end-1) = .5 * ( Pa(:,1:end-1) + Pa(:,2:end) );
  • Use circshift, but this does does odd things for the border pixels.
  • Easiest: Use imfilter.
  • The textbook's website, where you can find the software, the data for the challenges, and additional challenges and data.
  • New! 2/14/2012 If you think a mistake has been made in grading your work, submit it for regrading within two weeks of the date on which the work was returned to the class. After that, the grade will be considered final. Keep your work in case there is a question about recording of grades.
  • GRACE: These are the computers that give all of you access to Matlab. (If you have a more convenient option, it is fine to use it.)
  • Accessing Matlab on the GRACE machines, with graphics. Helpful summary of things to know, from a student.
  • Information about computer accounts. See also the additional pointers at the bottom of notes by Larry Herman. For your work, you may use any machine that has the necessary software.
  • Sources for Matlab information:
  • Official Matlab documentation
  • Matlab Primer: 39 pages of basic information
  • Timothy A. Davis, Kermit Sigmon, Matlab Primer, CRC Press 2005. A 200 page version of the above reference.
  • D. J. Higham and N. J. Higham, Matlab Guide, SIAM Press 2005.
  • Lecture notes:
  • Introduction and notes for Chapter 1.
  • Notes for Chapter 2.
  • Notes for Chapter 3. (From Per Christian Hansen)
  • Notes for Chapter 5. (From Per Christian Hansen)
  • Notes for Chapter 6.
  • Demonstrations:
  • chapter2demo.tar
  • SCCSproj1solution.m and proj1data.mat
  • gcv.m and gcvfun.m
  • discreptik.m
  • discreptsvd.m

    • Schedule for Spring 2012 New! 03/27/2012 Now includes participation point values for each class and the term project presentation schedule.
