This class is a practical introduction to statistical modeling and experimental design, intended to provide essential skills for doing research. We will cover basic techniques--such as hypothesis-testing and regression models--for both traditional experiments and newer paradigms such as evaluating simulations. Coursework will consist of analyzing sample datasets and readings of studies and articles. Students with research projects will be encouraged to share their experiences and project-specific questions.

A thorough introduction to the C programming language, the workhorse of the UNIX operating system and lingua franca of embedded processors and micro-controllers. The first two weeks will cover basic syntax and grammar, and expose students to practical programming techniques. Then lectures will focus on more advanced concepts such as dynamic memory allocation, concurrency and synchronization, UNIX signals and process control, library development and usage. Daily required programming exercises, and weekly laboratory exercises. Knowledge of C is highly marketable for summer internships, UROPs, and full-time positions in software and embedded systems development.

Ever feel sad that your Python program wasn't as fast as your friend's C program? Ever wish you could use objects without having to use Java? Join us for this fun introduction to C and C++! We will take you through a tour that will start with writing simple C programs, go deep into the caves of C memory manipulation, resurface with an introduction to using C++ classes, dive deeper into advanced C++ class use and the C++ Standard Template Libraries. We'll wrap up by teaching you some tricks of the trade that you may need for tech interviews. First hour will be lecture, then we'll stay and help with problems. Bringing a charged laptop is recommended.

Zombie-like, 6.001 rises from the dead to teach scheme again. Unlike a zombie, though, it's moving quite a bit faster than it did the first time. Like the original, don't walk into the class expecting that it will teach you scheme; instead, 6.001 attempts to teach thought patterns
for computer science, and the structure and interpretation of computer programs. Weekly projects, many based on historic 6.001 projects, will be assigned.

Level: U 3 units Graded P/D/F Can be repeated for credit   

Introduction to the ToBI system for transcribing spoken prosody (i.e. prominences and grouping), using the OCW tutorial. ToBI-labelled corpora have enabled the study of constituent-edge-related phonetic phenomena (e.g. articulatory strengthening, voice quality changes), and accent placement variation (e.g. Early Accent), patterns which do not align with traditional syntactic structure.
Review the basics of the ToBI system, examine examples, learn about two new additions to the system (the Alternatives Tier and new conventions for labeling the
prosody of disfluent regions of an utterance), with ample opportunity for discussion and practice transcribing. Participants should BYO laptop, and are encouraged to bring speech samples of their own for group analysis.
