   Statistical and algorithmic methods for sensing, recognizing, and interpreting the activities of people by a computer. The focus is on machine perception techniques that facilitate and augment human-computer interaction. The main goal of the class is to introduce computational perception on both theoretical and practical levels. The students will work in small groups to design, implement, and evaluate a prototype of a human-computer interaction system that uses one or more of the techniques covered in lectures.

Prerequisites: Graduate/Advanced Undergraduate standing or by permission. Programming skills and previous exposure to probability and linear algebra classes is highly recommended.

Computer Requirements: College of Engineering requirements

Note: May be applied toward Certificate in Human Computer Interaction

Instructor: Alex Stoytchev
