SGN-1996 Signal Processing Thesis Seminar Presentation

Docent Alpo Värri

Time and place

The seminar is held in TB224/TB222 on Fridays at 9-11. The titles of the presentations are updated weekly to the seminar programme.

Contents

The student makes a presentation of his/her own Master's Thesis topic area for a target group of advanced undergraduate students in the Faculty of Computing and Electrical Engineering. Usually a teacher from the institute to which the thesis has been made attends the seminar, too. The regular amount of presentations in a seminar is four in a two hour seminar. This means that each presentation should not last longer than 15-20 minutes.

Requirements

1. The course can be passed by giving one's presentation in an acceptable way. The audience can ask questions about the presentation and the thesis.
2. A maturity test is also related to the seminar presentation. The student must prepare a three-page document about the topic area of his/her thesis and deliver it to the supervising professor and Alpo Värri at least one week before the seminar presentation. The three pages should not contain illustrations or tables but only plain essay text.

Notes

• Presentation times can be reserved from the supervisor of the thesis (he/she has updating access to the seminar list) or the office of the Department of Signal Processing, Kaisa Eerola TC414 (Kaisa.Eerola(a)tut.fi)
• The course is compulsory to those international students whose Diploma Thesis is made for the Department of Signal Processing
• The seminar room has an overhead projector and a video projector but no computers which means that the student should bring a laptop computer in order to use the video projector. It is adviced to study the use of the video projector together with the laptop in advance of the seminar. Otherwise it will be more embarrasing to study it in front of a waiting audience during the seminar.
