Learning objectives
The course aims at introducing the students to fundamental concepts of data mining algorithms and how these are adapted for needs of audio signal processing and recognition. The principal
statistical modeling techniques are presented inluding neural networks and hidden Markov models.
Expected learning outcomes
The student is expected to understand the operation of the princical data mining algorithms. The student will gain the ability to design and implement the entire pipeline of an audio pattern
recognition system.
