Teaching - Intelligent Biomedical Sensing (IBS) Lab

Summer Term 2024: Seminar - Machine Learning for Biomedical Signal Analysis

To join this seminar you have to be enrolled as a student at TU Berlin. The IBS courses are offered alongside the course offerings of the Machine Learning Department of Faculty IV - Institute of Software Engineering and Theoretical Computer Science, TU Berlin.

What?

In this Seminar students will develop topics independently and present them to the group at the end of the semester. Topics are based on publications that cover fundamentals of various biosignals, timeseries pre-processing, decomposition methods, feature extraction and typical challenges in multivariate / multimodal biosignal analysis. Topics will be closely linked to common methods and challenges that the Intelligent Biomedical Sensing Lab is working on towards wearable neurotechnology and brain-body imaging.

How to register:

Please register for the course in ISIS or via email.

Winter Term 2024: Lecture Series - Machine Learning for Biomedical Signal Analysis

To join this course you have to be enrolled as a student at TU Berlin. The IBS courses are offered alongside the course offerings of the Machine Learning Department of Faculty IV - Institute of Software Engineering and Theoretical Computer Science, TU Berlin.

What?

The lecture series contains of 9 lectures plus two seminars at the end in which students give short presentations. We will cover fundamentals of various biosignals, timeseries pre-processing, decomposition methods, feature extraction and typical challenges in multivariate / multimodal biosignal analysis. The course is based on common methods and challenges that the Intelligent Biomedical Sensing Lab is working on towards wearable neurotechnology and brain-body imaging.

Learning Outcomes:

Knowledge and skills: Students will understand the basic concepts of common biosignals from the domains of electrophysiology (EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG, EDA), diffuse optics (fNIRS, DOT, PPG), and a few selected others. They will be familiar with filtering techniques for timeseries signal (pre-)processing, such as frequency filters, bode diagrams, fourier analysis (nyquist theorem) and wavelet analysis. They will know different frameworks for decomposition of multivariate timeseries signals, both supervised and unsupervised linear models. Basics of sensor and feature fusion and feature extraction of timeseries signals and typical challenges (artefacts, data synchronization, explainability) will be understood.

When/Where:

This lecture series will take place Tuesday 10-12:00 in-person in room MAR 4.033 starting October 2024.
