Chapter 11, on finding zeros of splines, is now available under 'Teaching material' to the left.
Please note that there was a misprint in the message about the date of the exam. The correct date is June 1, see below.
The date for the final exam has now been fixed, it will be Wednesday June 1 in room B534. This will an oral exam that lasts about 35-45 mins for each candidate. It will start with quite simple overview questions and then proceed to more demanding questions. You may write on a piece of paper or on the blackboard, and you will of course be allowed time to think if necessary. To earn a grade of A you will be expected to have a very good overview of the different topics as well as detailed technical knowledge of proofs etc. The requirements then weaken with the grade.
Those of you who intend to use this course as part of your PhD will only get a pass/fail grade, but the pass grade is roughly equivalent to a B in INF-MAT5340. That means that you should have a good grasp of the different topics and how they are connected, as well as good knowledge of the central theorems with proofs.
The lecture Monday, May 2, has been cancelled, see the revised plan.
Assignment 5 has been changed slightly in that one problem has been replaced by a new one, see the plan on the left.
The complete lecture notes for 2011 can now be downloaded.
The new version of Chapter 4 can be downloaded
A good time for the exam for us seems to be the week of May 30 – June 3. Is there a time during this week that does not work for you?
New versions of Chapter 7-9 can be downloaded.
The deadline for Assignment 4 which we posted yesterday was wrong; the date should be April 4.
The lecture plan has been updated with new dates for the last two assignments. Please note that assignments 4 and 5 have been swapped so Assignment 4 is now compulsory for everybody.
The text for assignment 3 is now available, see under 'Teaching' on the left.
The problems for assignment 3 will be available soon, but since both Tom and I are travelling communication is a bit slower than usual. One of the problems will definitely be to write a procedure that computes the first derivative of a spline of degree p with knots t, if you want to get started.
A detailed plan for the lectures can be found under the heading 'Teaching' on the left. This will most definitely need to be adjusted as we go along.
You do not need to print version 27.1 of chapter 1 if you already printed version 23.1 The only difference between the two versions is Figure 1.7.
First compulsory assignment: Problems 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.7 from Chapter 1, 2011. They are due Monday February 14.
For the time being the lectures will take place in
rom 1206 in Ifi1.
This is a digital studio. If you use the entrance on the first floor between Ifi1 and Ifi2 then you take a right, pas the toilets and then go right. The room is then on your right.
Chapter 1 of the course text can now be downloaded.
Lokalet er nå endret til et rom i Ifi2, men dette lokalet har foreløbig ikke mulighet for video-overføring. Inntil videre vil derfor undervisningen foregå i
rom 1206 i Ifi1
Dette er USITS digitalstudio og du finner det ved å ta til høyre når du kommer inn hovedinngangen i 1. etg. mot Ifi2. Gå forbi toalettene og så til høyre, så finner du rommet på høyre side.
Velkommen til INF-MAT5340!
Undervisningen vil være basert på det samme kompendiet som har vært brukt tidligere år, men vil bli noe revidert. Merk at det vil være undervisning både på mandag og fredag i tiden 10-12. Vi vil nok alltid bruke begge timene på mandag, men på fredag vil vi enkelte uker bare bruke en time, og enkelte uker ha en time med oppgaver.
Undervisningslokalet vil sannsynligvis bli endret til et rom i Ifi2 med mulighet for videooverføring siden det er en del personer på NTNU som ønsker å følge undervisningen.
Forelesere vil være Tom Lyche og Knut Mørken.
Hilsen
Tom og Knut
