graced the occasion with their presence. A brief overview about the FDP was given

by Mr. Edet Bijoy K and the vote of thanks was delivered by Dr. Shaeen K.

The main objective of the 5-day FDP was to develop strong basics in mathematical

concepts for understanding communication and signal processing theories. The

course covered the mathematical foundation needed to understand the various

signal processing techniques. The topics covered were Multirate Signal Processing,

Mathematical Concepts and methods for Signal Processing, Linear Algebra,

Probability and Random Process, Abstract Algebra, System Modelling,

Homomorphic Signal Processing, Transforms in Signal Processing and Graph

Theory.

The sessions were handled by eminent experts from prestigious institutions

in India. The resource persons were, Dr. Shayan G. Srinivasa, Dept. of

Electronic Systems Engineering, Indian Institute of Science Bangalore, Dr.
