3.2, due Monday Oct 2

difficult:

In the proof of proposition 3.2.4, there was a double contradiction that was difficult to follow. It makes sense intuitively, though.

application:

This whole section was generally things that I already know, from having taken CS classes. It was cool seeing the mathematical representations of each of these things.

8.1, due Nov 27 17

Difficult: The hardest part was following all of the integrals going on. The idea of fourier transforms is interesting, but I don't know how well I'll actually be able to follow it. Also, how is having a basis for only a subset of F make a suitable basis for all of the functions/signals we care about? Application: I've seen some of what DFT/FFTs can do, and it's super cool. I'm excited to see how we can apply this to audio and visual conversions!

8.6, due Friday 12/8

Difficult: Honestly, this whole thing is a bit fuzzy to me. I'm not quite sure how it works. I feel like I won't fully understand until I do a lab on it. Application: well, the picture of the mandrill was interesting. How sure are we, though, that this is how the FBI does fingerprints?

8.2 due wed 11/28

Difficult: Why is x_l = l(delta)? (top of pg 293). Also, I think that we could have used just a bit more explanation on what DFT/FFT's are. Application: In general, the DFT seems really cool based on what I've seen of Michael's pictures from Physics and such, but I can't seem to understand how exactly they work.
