Basic Information
Course Summary:
This course offers an introduction to the modern artificial intelligence: the pattern analysis and machine intelligence (PAMI) studies. This research field ranges over a wide variety of well-established subjects, including artificial intelligence (AI), pattern recognition (PR), machine learning (ML), neural network (NN), all of which are intricately related to each other because of the shared underlying concepts and theories. Collectively they contribute to various practical applications, such as graphics/animation, games, factory automation, robotics, video analysis/security, medical imaging, bioinformatics, data mining, to name a few. The main goal of this course is to develop an intuitive understanding of the various fields, as well as to understand differences between them due to specific historical and application domain biases. Through lectures together with hands-on prototyping exercises, you will learn not only about a number of fundamental and useful PAMI techniques but also lessons on how to successfully conduct a research project.
Objectives:
· Learn the foundation of PAMI studies:
o Artificial intelligence
o Pattern recognition
o Machine learning
o Neural network and Deep Learning
· Learn the general concepts across various fields:
o Data and knowledge representation
o Problem formulation
o Problem solving
· Become familiarized with basic algorithms in PAMI practice.
· Become exposed to various application domains and basic literature in PAMI studies.
Prerequisites:
Graduate standing or consent of the instructor.
Office Hours:
Zoom links for office hours for both the instructor and the TA are given in the course Canvas page. Office hours will be available for online conversations during the chosen office hour time specified above. Students are requested to make yourself visible by turning the video on. Students will be met in first-come first-served basis. Please email the instructors ahead of time to reserve a specific time slot of 10-20 minutes, should you have important issues to consult with.
Final Project
Literature Survey Report & Presentation:
An independent literature survey project on deep learning is to be carried out by each student. This assignment provides you a hands-on exercise for conducting literature review and presentation toward preparing your own thesis and publication. Each student must choose appropriate representative articles (approved by the instructor before Mar 19), conduct short presentation (on May 14), and submit a survey report due on the last class meeting (on May 14). Your work will be graded based on the quality and completeness of your presentation and report. Late policy specified below will apply. Read the assignment in the above lecture plan table for more details.
In-Class Exercises
MATLAB Tutorials/Exercises:
These tutorials/exercises offer you opportunity to learn MATLAB: a popular numerical computing software tool which will be used during our fast-prototyping exercises. The instructors will introduce you to basics of the tool and guide you through some hands-on exercises. Please prepare your own laptop with an installation of MATLAB. A free copy of MATLAB is available for all SFSU students via https://athelp.sfsu.edu/hc/en-us/articles/360011475074-Getting-MATLAB-for-students. Please consult the instructor upon questions about this tool. Tutorials given via zoom will be recorded and made accessible as your study resource in the Canvas page when they become available.
Fast-Prototyping Exercises:
These in-class hands-on programming exercises are designed to help you learn how to implement and test an algorithm quickly, and to familiarize you with practical computer vision applications and their solutions. Three classic algorithms (PCA for face recognition, Mean Shift for clustering/segmentation, and LDA for classification) will be implemented by you. One reference paper will beb provided for each algorithm to familiarize you with their theory. The instructor will provide data, followed by a brief description of tasks to be tackled. Students are to complete a software prototype during class meetings with minimum preparation. Please bring your own laptop with an installation of MATLAB. Please refer to the above description on how to acquire the MATLAB copy.
Exams/Homework
Exams:
No midterm/final examinations. J
Homework:
Five homework assignments will be given as take-home exams. Their schedule is given in the above lecture plan table. You will be asked to answer questions and solve quantitative analytical problems. Some homework involves solving difficult pen&paper analytical problems. You are advised not to procrastinate. Unless specified otherwise, each homework is due in one week.
Canvas Usage:
Distribution and submission of your assignments will be handled through the Canvas course page. After the instructor made it available, click the specified Canvas link to view each homework assignment. Work on your problems and write down your answers on your own papers (make sure you write your name and SID# for each page). After you complete it, sort your answer papers according to the problem numbers and scan them by using a PDF-Scan tool (e.g., CamScanner, Scannable, GeniusScan, AdobeScan, Multifunction Printer, etc) and save it to a single PDF file, combining all pages into one file. After checking that all pages are present and readable, submit your PDF file by using the specified Canvas assignment submission link. Always double-check what you submitted for its completeness and readability.

In case of extraordinary circumstance, it is the student’s responsibility to inform the instructor and submit supporting documents as soon as s/he can.
In-Class Communication Device Rule:
Any ringing devices such as cell phones and must be turned-off during the lectures. Students with a ringing device will be asked to leave the class meeting immediately and not allowed to come back for the class meeting.
Academic Integrity & Plagiarism:
Academic integrity, the ethical presentation of one's own work in accordance with the rules established for this class, is required. Instances of academic misconduct will be reported to the College in which the course is housed, the Division of Graduate Studies (if a graduate student), and the Office of Student Conduct with the report being kept in those offices until a student earns his/her degree. Any instances of cheating, deceit, fabrication, forgery, plagiarism, unauthorized altering of records or submitting false documents, unauthorized collaboration, unauthorized submission of work previously given credit, or other forms of academic misconduct will be assigned a grade penalty, likely an F or a grade of zero. Failing one or more assignments or examinations for reasons of academic integrity violations may result in a final class grade of F. Students may not withdraw from classes in which they have committed academic misconduct. Consequences for violations of academic integrity may exceed an F on the assignment, examination, or class as determined by the Academic Integrity Review Committee.
Members of our academic community have a responsibility to develop an awareness of academic integrity, to cultivate skills to realize honesty in academic and community work, and to sustain actively academic honor as a core value of our community. Students are expected to engage in behaviors that reflect well upon the university. In addition to attending to one's own actions, the Standards for Student Conduct require that students who witness academic dishonesty notify their faculty/instructor, department chair, or the Office of Student Conduct. Supporting academic integrity enhances the reputation of the University and the value attributed to degrees awarded by the University.
I encourage discussion among students, but I expect each student to hand in their original work. You are responsible for doing your own work and for ensuring that your work is protected from copying. Usage of online cheating sites, such as a use of Chegg.com and CourseHero.com, is strictly forbidden. Violation of this rule will be treated seriously without any leniency. Your continued enrollment in this class indicates that you have carefully and entirely read and pledge to abide by the Honor Code published on the Canvas page of this course and accept the consequences to violations of its terms.
