Timetable
The course will start on Tuesday 29th April 2008 and end on Friday 6th June 2008.
"Lectures" will be held on Tuesdays 2-3pm and Fridays
on Fridays, 9.30-10.30 and 11.00 - 12.00. Lectures will be held in the CSO tea-room.
Lecturer
Paul Francis will be the main lecturer. There will also be a number of guest lecturers.
Course Structure
This will not be a conventional lecture course: it is intended to be far more hands-on and
practical. Notes will be posted ahead of each lecture and everyone will be expected to have
read and digested them ahead of each lecture. There will be a short multiple choice quiz at
the start of each pair of lectures to make sure that you do this reading! This will free-up the
lecture time to be spent on doing practical exercises, in a tutorial style.
Topics will not be covered in precisely this order. In particular, the programming and
stats sections will be broken up in pieces and scattered throughout the course. You will have plenty
of opportunities to apply these techniques to assignments in the other sections of the course.
Imaging - sources of noise. Signal to noise ratio calculation. Interference and glass
