Syllabus:

Pattern recognition is a field of applied mathematics which involves the description and analysis of measurements taken from a range of sources (eg sensor reading, financial data, psycho-physical measurements). In order to provide an effective, efficientdescription of patterns, pre-processing is often required to remove noise and measurement redundancy. Then a set of characteristic measurements (features) and relations among these measurements are extracted for the representation of a specific pattern or model. Analysis (clustering, classification or identification) of the patterns with respect to a specific application is performed on the basis of this representation. The course will cover all essential aspects of the pattern recognition process. Specifically, the following will form the basis of the course - data acquisition, pre-processing, feature invariance, representation issues, feature selection and extraction, bayes classifier, clustering techniques, artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM), hidden markov model (HMM) and graphical models.
