Course overview and goals
Multimedia include many kinds of media, such as audio, speech, still images, video, texts, outputs from various sensors. This course first teaches signal processing, pattern recognition, and information retrieval for speech. It then teaches signal processing and semantic analysis for various mobile sensors that form the Internet of Things (IoT). This course facilitates students' understanding of multimedia technology and development their ability of multilateral ways of thinking.
Course description and aims
At the end of this course, students will be able to explain the multimedia technology and to design a system using multimedia.
Keywords
speech analysis, speech recognition, speech synthesis, speaker recognition, mobile sensor, behavior understanding
