– To enable the students to get hands-on experience in the design,
implementation and evaluation of pattern recognition algorithms.
– Teams: 2 students
– Solve a practical pattern recognition problem of your choice.
– Use Matlab or a general programming language.
– Good projects involve using multiple classifiers and evaluating their
performance in solving the problem. And should use preprocessing
and feature extraction and selection.
