Assignment to Modules

Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks This course deals with the general question of how to store and work with continuous data - i.e., data we would mathematically describe via a multidimensional real-valued function. It thus gives an introduction to several transforms, approaches for high-dimensional data and adaptivity. Topics include: Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and related transforms: - Fast Fourier Transform (FFT): derivation and efficient implementation - Fast discrete cosine/sine transforms: derivation and implementation via FFT - Applications: multi-dimensional data (images, video, audio), using specific transform for data with specific properties, FFT-based solvers for linear systems of equations Hierarchical numerical methods: - Hierarchical bases for one-and multi-dimensional problems - Computational cost versus accuracy: Sparse Grids - Applications: numerical quadrature, approximation and classification of data - Wavelets Space-filling curves: - Tree-structured adaptive grids (quadtrees, octrees) and relation to space-filling curves - Peano-and Hilbert curves: representation by algebraic and grammatical means - Applications: organisation of multi-dimensional data; parallel algorithms and cache oblivious algorithms
