  1. Lecture Overview This Time ECE 457/557 • Go over syllabus Engineering Data Analysis & Modeling • Class overview & logistics ece.pdx.edu/ ∼ edam • Introduction • Course overview Next Time Dr. James McNames • Begin fundamental concepts mcnames@pdx.edu Electrical & Computer Engineering J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 1 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 2 MATLAB My Background • You will be required to complete homework assignments and a • Ph.D. 1999 project that use a high-level language • Teaching in PSU ECE dept. seven years • MATLAB is strongly recommended, but you may use similar • Fifth time teaching this course packages such as Mathematica, MathCad, R, Octave, and SPlus • Formerly named “Learning from Data” • I will include MATLAB code segments in my notes • Research area: Biomedical signal processing (see • Will not teach you MATLAB — you are expected to learn on your http://bsp.pdx.edu) own • There are many tutorial books J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 3 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 4

  2. Text Books Course Resources • No required text book • Recommended text books – Range of topics is too broad for one book • Lecture notes (third draft) – Primary source of information: lecture notes • Distance learning classroom – Contact me for more information on a particular topic • Web site: http://ece.pdx.edu/ ∼ edam • Two recommended books • Feedback on all encouraged (Email preferred) – The Elements of Statistical Learning: Data Mining, Inference, and Prediction. Hastie, Tibshirani, and Friedman, 2001, ISBN 0-387-95284-5. – Applied Linear Statistical Models , Fifth Edition. Kutner, Nachtscheim, Neter, and Li, 2005, ISBN 0-07-238688-6. • Will adapt notes to follow the first one more closely this term • Will also include recommended reading J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 5 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 6 Course Web Site Lecture Notes • Posted on the class web site http://ece.pdx.edu/ ∼ edam • Will update throughout the term • Syllabus • Watch for updates as late as 1/2 hour before lecture (11:30 am) • Outline • Updates will not be drastic • Lecture notes — essential • Old notes should suffice in most cases • Links to data • Workspace provided for examples worked during lecture • Homework assignments • Project requirements • Suggested books • Grades • Student reports & presentations from previous terms J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 7 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 8

  3. 6-digit Codes Assessment • 20% Homework • I use 6-digit codes to post your grades online and for anonymous identification on exams – 5–6 assignments – Will consist of applying methods & algorithms discussed in • Email code to me this week class • Can be any character that you can send via a plain-text email – Generally will have 1 week to complete • Remember it for the exam and quiz – 557 students will have additional problems J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 9 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 10 Assessment Continued (1) Assessment Continued (2) • 20% Midterm • 50% Project – Part conceptual, part application – 5% outline, introduction, and literature review – Late in the term – 5% first draft of report (based on completeness) – 5% blinded peer review • 10% Final quiz – 10% oral presentation (includes attendance & participation) – In class – 25% final draft of report (based on quality) – 30–60 minutes – All conceptual – Key requirement: Must use or expand methods discussed in class – Report details on next slide J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 11 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 12

  4. Final Report Format Final Report Assessment • Will give a score final report for each of the following categories • Must be in final submission format (5 page maximum) – Approximately 9 pt type, two justified columns • Format – Does the report adhere to the IEEE format? – See BSP web site for examples: http://bsp.pdx.edu – Does it adhere to requirements listed on the web site? – Previously allowed IEEE peer-review, but not this term • Grammar • Must be written in L A T EX or MS Word – Is the report written in past tense (it should be)? • Must submit electronic copy – Does the report use the terms ”I” or ”you” inappropriately? • Detailed formatting information is posted on the web site – Were there many grammar or spelling errors? • Scope should be similar to an IEEE conference paper • Organization – Is the report well organized? – Are the section headings appropriate and clear? • Clarity: – Was the report clearly written? – Could I understand what was done and why after reading it? J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 13 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 14 Final Report Assessment Continued General Comments • This course is still in the development phase • Scope: Was the project of sufficient scope for the class? • May add or remove material as the term progresses • Abstract: Does the abstract give an accurate and concise summary of the report? • I expect much of your learning to occur out of lecture working on the projects • Significance: Is the significance of the project explained? • “Learn by doing” philosophy • Objectives: Are the project objectives clearly specified in the introduction? • Methodology: Were the methods and algorithms used appropriate for the data and project objectives? • Results: – Were the results sufficient? – Were they clearly stated? – Was a table or plot used to display the results appropriately? • Citations: Were appropriate citations made to previous work? J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 15 J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 16

  5. Scope of Class • Concepts, methods, & algorithms will be described in lecture • You will demonstrate your understanding by implementing (i.e. coding) and applying these methods on real data • Coverage will target time-proven methods • Not necessarily the best or latest • Many of these problems are still active areas of research • Less structured than other classes, project-driven J. McNames Portland State University ECE 4/557 Fall 2006 Lecture 1 17
