Treats such aspects of thinking as vision, language, learning, reasoning, memory, consciousness, ideals, emotions, and personality. Incorporates ideas from psychology, artificial intelligence, and computer science to resolve theoretical issues such as wholes vs parts, structural vs functional descriptions, declarative vs procedural representations, symbolic vs connectionist models, and logical vs common-sense theories of learning.http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-868JSpring-2007/CourseHome/index.htmMinsky, Marvin2009-09-28T04:53:25-04:006.868JMAS.731Jen-USElectrical Engineering and Computer ScienceCognitive Psychology and Psycholinguisticsmental processescommon sense thinkingemotion machinehuman mindabstract modelartificial intelligencethinkinghow minds workMedia Arts and SciencesMIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.eduContent within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

Emphasis on human interface design issues and interaction techniques to successfully exploit the speech medium for computer applications, including extensive reading from current research literature. Topics include human speech production and perception, isolated and connected speech recognition, text-to-speech synthesis algorithms, telephone technologies, parsers, and dialogue generation.http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Media-Arts-and-Sciences/MAS-632Fall-2008/CourseHome/index.htmSchmandt, Christopher2009-06-23T03:03:46-04:00MAS.632en-USMedia Arts and Sciencesvoicemailmobile applicationstelephonycomputer speechcomputer voicevoice responsecall centervoice recognitionvoice messagingaudio browsingcomprehensionnoisecodingaudiodigital speechspeech synthesisvoice synthesisdigital voiceMIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.eduContent within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

For further information see http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/terms/terms/index.htmA computational camera attempts to digitally capture the essence of visual information by exploiting the synergistic combination of task-specific optics, illumination, sensors and processing. In this couse we will study this emerging multi-disciplinary field at the intersection of signal processing, applied optics, computer graphics and vision, electronics, art, and online sharing through social networks. If novel cameras can be designed to sample light in radically new ways, then rich and useful forms of visual information may be recorded — beyond those present in traditional protographs. Furthermore, if computational process can be made aware of these novel imaging models, them the scene can be analyzed in higher dimensions and novel aesthetic renderings of the visual information can be synthesized. We will discuss and play with thermal cameras, multi-spectral cameras, high-speed, and 3D range-sensing cameras and camera arrays. We will learn about opportunities in scientific and medical imaging, mobile-phone based photography, camera for HCI and sensors mimicking animal eyes. We will learn about the complete camera pipeline. In several hands-on projects we will build physical imaging prototypes and understand how each stage of the imaging process can be manipulated. http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Media-Arts-and-Sciences/MAS-963Fall-2008/CourseHome/index.htmRaskar, Ramesh 2009-06-23T03:03:07-04:00MAS.963en-USMedia Arts and SciencesComputer Graphicspolarizationhigh-speed imagingthermal imaging3D imagingmulti-spectralspectrumlensbiomimeticsmblogmedical imagingimage reconstructionimage sensorvisual art image processingdigital imagingdigital photographyonline photocomputer visionComputer graphicsapplied opticssignal processingMIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.eduContent within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.
