  • CMSC 34200: Numerical Hydrodynamics

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Ability to program; and familiarity with elementary numerical methods and modeling physical systems by systems of differential equations. This course covers numerical methods for the solution of fluid flow problems. We also make a theoretical evaluation of the methods and experimental study based on the opinionated book Fundamentals of Computational Fluid Dynamics by Patrick J. Roache. T. Dupont. Spring.

  • CMSC 34710: Wireless Sensor Networks

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Graduate-level understanding of Unix/Linux operating systems, networking, computer architecture, and programming. This course introduces the concepts and technologies for building embedded systems and wireless sensors nets by focusing on four areas: low-power hardware, wireless networking, embedded operating systems, and sensors. Two assignments provide hands-on experience by deploying small wireless sensor motes running TinyOS to form an ad-hoc peer-to-peer network that can collect environmental data and forward it back to an 802.11b-equiped embedded Linux module. Students also read and summarize papers, participate in classroom discussions, and work on a team research project. R. Stevens. Not offered 2009 C10; will be offered 201 0 -11.

  • CMSC 35500: Computer Vision

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Consent of instructor. This course covers deformable models for detecting objects in images. Topics include one-dimensional models to identify object contours and boundaries; two-dimensional models for image matching; and sparse models for efficient detection of objects in complex scenes. Mathematical tools needed to define the models and associated algorithms are developed. Applications include detecting contours in medical images, matching brains, and detecting faces in images. Neural network implementations of some of the algorithms are presented, and connections to the functions of the biological visual system are discussed. Y. Amit. Winter.

  • CMSC 36500: Algorithms in Finite Groups

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Linear algebra, finite fields, and a first course in group theory (Jordan-Holder and Sylow theorems) required; prior knowledge of algorithms not required. We consider the asymptotic complexity of some of the basic problems of computational group theory. The course demonstrates the relevance of a mix of mathematical techniques, ranging from combinatorial ideas, the elements of probability theory, and elementary group theory, to the theories of rapidly mixing Markov chains, applications of simply stated consequences of the Classification of Finite Simple Groups (CFSG), and, occasionally, detailed information about finite simple groups. No programming problems are assigned. L. Babai. Spring. Not offered 2009 C10; will be offered 201 0 -11.

  • CMSC 37000: Algorithms

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: CMSC 27200 or consent of instructor. The focus of this course is the analysis and design of efficient algorithms, with emphasis on ideas rather than on implementation. Algorithmic questions include sorting and searching, discrete optimization, algorithmic graph theory, algorithmic number theory, and cryptography. Design techniques include "divide-and-conquer" methods, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, and graph search, as well as the design of efficient data structures. Methods of algorithm analysis include asymptotic notation, evaluation of recurrent inequalities, the concepts of polynomial-time algorithms, and NP-completeness . L. Babai. Winter.
