課程概述 |
ME 5057 is an introductory probability and random process course for engineering students. Our syllabus has a strong emphasis on the theoretical foundations. ME 5057 is different from the statistics courses you took in high school. For example, you probably know about how to calculate the “mean” and “standard deviation” of some data, but have you thought about how to use the mean and standard deviation to classify objects in an image? We will not go deep into image classification in this course, but we will teach you a set of basic concepts in probability theory which will eventually allow you to study these problems in the future. |
課程目標 |
The objective of this course is that by the end of the semester, you will have
‧ a solid background in probability and random processes that can help you take advanced courses;
‧ an ability to formulate engineering problems using a probabilistic approach;
‧ an ability to analyze large-scale systems using statistical methods;
‧ an ability to identify the concept of random variables and properties of common types of random variables, and how to solve probabilistic problems;
‧ experience in using computers to solve probability problems.
Also, you will be able to
‧ use set-theoretic notation to describe events and compute probabilities;
‧ compute and interpret conditional probability, total probability, and describe Bayes' theorem;
‧ test for independence of events or of random variables;
‧ describe different types of discrete random variables and solve problems with important distributions such as Bernoulli, binomial, geometric, and Poisson distributions;
‧ identify continuous random variables and solve problems with important distributions such as uniform, normal, and exponential distributions;
‧ define what expectation and variance mean and be able to compute them;
‧ calculate moments of random variables and derive the distributions of functions of random variables; ‧ compute the covariance and correlation between jointly distributed variables;
‧ identify random process and what wide sense stationary process mean;
‧ compute power spectral density through LTI system. |

1. |
Homework |
0% |
Homework will not be graded, but some questions with the homework assignments
will be on the exam. |
2. |
Computer Assignment |
20% |
(10% each). There will be two computer assignments in this course. You are required to use MATLAB or Python to solve the questions. The assignments should be done individually. |
3. |
Midterms |
50% |
(25% each). There are two mid-term exams in this course. Each mid-term is for 90 minutes. The mid terms are scheduled on
– Mid-term 1: October 19 in class.
– Mid-term 2: November 23 in class.
Mid-terms are closed-book, closed-notes. No electronics, including calculators, cell phones, or smart watches are allowed. Mid-terms will be used to access demonstration of the learning objectives and may include the combinations of true & false, multiple choice, and work-out problems. Some formulas and tables may be provided. |
4. |
Final Exam |
30% |
The date of the final exam will be on December 21. The final is closed-book, closed- notes. No electronics, including calculators, cell phones, or smart watches are allowed. The final is cumulative and may include the combinations of true & false, multiple choice, and work-out problems. Some formulas and tables may be provided. |
