Knowledge

Students who complete the module:

• Have knowledge of stochastic processes in general
• Can describe stochastic processes and their application as models for real signals
• Can explain the defining properties of various stochastic process models
• Can identify the analytical tools for studying random phenomena in engineering systems
• Demonstrate understanding of the concepts, theories and techniques for estimating parameters of discrete stochastic processes
• Have knowledge about cross- and auto-correlation of stochastic processes
• Have knowledge about power spectral analysis of stationary stochastic processes and can estimate the power spectral density of discrete stochastic processes and understand the limitations in this estimation

Skills

• Can apply the theory of stochastic processes to model real phenomena

• Can estimate and analyze the power spectrum of biomedical signals that can be modeled as realizations of stochastic processes
• Can solve problems in applied sciences based on the theory for stochastic processes

Competences

• Are prepared for a wide range of courses in communication, signal processing, control and other areas in which randomness has an important role.
