Educational objectives
This class has the goal of transferring knowledge and competence for the definition and usage of estimation techniques for processing uncertain measurement data. At the end of this class, students will be able to:
- select the best estimator for solving practical estimation problems
- realize a measurement system using such estimator in the solution of typical problems in the electronic engineering area
Prerequisites
None
Teaching methods
Frontal lectures practical in-class sessions, exercises to be solve autonomously, design of practical systems

Learning verification modality
The final grade is based on the following:

- Final (50%)
- Project (team score, 50%)

The final exam will be a written test. The project grade is assigned to the group as a whole, after oral discussion of the design outcomes.
Extended program
Introductory material and goal of this class. Application examples of estimation techniques applied to measurement data in the area of Internet-of-Things.

The Monte Carlo method. Minimum variance estimators. Cramer-rao limit. BLUE estimators. Maximum likelihood estimators. Least squares estimators. Method of moments. Bayesian estimators. Kalman filter.

To transfer knowledge and competences, groups of students will realize a measuring instrument.

Lectures on project management and systems engineering will be provided to sustain the project design process.
