IN5340 – Statistical Signal Processing
Course description
Course content
The course covers methods for analysis of digital signals in noise. Examples of topics are description of stochastic signals in time and frequency domain, modeling of signals, estimation, detection, spectral estimation, adaptive filters, and audio signal processing.
Learning outcome
After finishing this course:
- You have good?knowledge about digital signal processing applied on signals in noise.
- You can develop methods to estimate parameters from random sequences and frequency spectra.
- You can implement and apply classical and adaptive filters.
- You can develop signal models suitable for modeling random sequences.
- You can implement methods and algorithms in matlab that solve practical problems in statistical signal processing.
- You have knowledge in signal processing suitable for different applications such as physics, measurement techniques, sensor technology, digital communication, and imaging.
Admission to the course
Students admitted at UiO must?apply for courses?in Studentweb. Students enrolled in other Master's Degree Programmes can, on application, be admitted to the course if this is cleared by their own study programme.
Nordic citizens and applicants residing in the Nordic countries may?apply to take this course as a single course student.
If you are not already enrolled as a student at UiO, please see our information about?admission requirements and procedures for international applicants.

Teaching
4 hours of lectures every other week and 4 hours of group work the?opposite weeks.
Submission of mandatory assignments is required. The course consist of 7 topics, each of which will have a mandatory assignment.?Read more about requirements for submission of assignments, group work and legal cooperation under guidelines for mandatory assignments.
Examination
Final written or oral exam which counts 100% of the grade.
The form of the exam will be announced at the beginning of the semester and will depend on the number of participating students.
At least 4 of the 7 mandatory assignments must be approved before you can take the exam, and these assignments must be approved in the same semester.
It will also be counted as one of?your three?attempts to sit the exam for this course, if you sit the exam for one of the following courses:?IN9340 – Statistical Signal Processing, INF4480 – Digital Signal Processing II (continued), INF9480
Language of examination
You may write your examination paper in Norwegian, Swedish, Danish or English.
Grading scale
Grades are awarded on a scale from A to F, where A is the best grade and F?is a fail. Read more about?the grading system.
Resit an examination
Students who can document a valid reason for absence from the regular examination are?offered a postponed examination at the beginning of the next semester.
Re-scheduled examinations are not offered to students who withdraw during, or did not pass the original examination.
