Description:The course has several objectives: 1) to bridge the large gap between typical undergraduate
numerical math courses and useful modelling/simulation practice for real science and engineering problems;
2) via the hands-on components using MAPP, to ensure that students translate concepts learned in class into
practical implementations that actually work, thus developing real understanding of the material and
confidence in their own abilities; 3) to have students appreciate the considerable commonalities in
modelling/simulation techniques for different multi-physics applications that, at first sight, often seem
unrelated; 4) to have students clearly appreciate the role of nonlinearity in modelling and simulation, while at
the same time appreciating the importance of linear analysis techniques for both nonlinear and linear
problems; 5) to show students how noise analysis of circuits and systems, typically learned at the
undergraduate level in an ad-hoc manner that often leads to future confusion, can be understood properly and
clearly using concepts from random variables and stochastic processes.

Description:Quantum error correction is indispensable to building a quantum computer and protecting

quantum information. This rapidly growing field has deep and fruitful connexions to many areas of physics,
specifically statistical physics, which lead to new insights and applications. For example, these connexions
have enabled the constructions of efficient decoders, the characterization of channel capacity in terms of
phase transition, and the discovery of new phases of matter. After a general introduction to the topic of
quantum error correction, this course will cover advanced topics, with a special emphasis on its relations to
statistical physics. It will present landmark results as well as state-of-the-art current research topics.
Although familiarity with either classical linear codes and/or statistical physics could be useful, neither are
necessary. Some familiarity with quantum mechanics will be​ ​assumed​ ​(state​ ​vector,​ ​matrix​ ​algebra,​ ​etc.) The
primary objectives of the course are as follows: i) Become familiar with modern and advanced research topics
in the field of quantum error correction. ii) Learn how to apply some of the tools of statistical physics to this
setting.

Course Type:

Description:This course is proposed to be an umbrella under which students can work with interested faculty
on short-term creative engineering projects, leading to solutions to real-world problems. The level of the
project is expected to involve the material from the first six semesters of the curriculum.

CourseContent:This course will encompass all aspects of learning leading to, but not limited to, prototyping,
developing innovative solutions to identified problems and exhibiting an understanding of the working of such
solutions. The proposed mechanism of interaction between the faculty and students is as follows: A faculty
member can propose a student project outlining the motivation, objectives, expectations of student time
commitment and deliverables. A document with this content may be developed in collaboration with the
students and shall act as a memorandum for the course. The students are expected to work in a self-
motivated and self-monitored mode. However, they are encouraged to interact periodically with the faculty
mentor and discuss progress documented in the form of periodic reports. The Advisor, co-curricular affairs
shall be designated the course co-ordinator. The Advisor along with the faculty mentor will meet with the
students at least twice during the course of the semester to assess progress. The Advisor, co-curricular will
ensure that the Center for Innovation space and resources are available to the students and faculty should
they choose to use the same. The faculty mentor shall assign a letter grade upon completion of the project
based on a rubric that was agreed upon at the start of the semester. The students may work in teams but the
role and contribution of each of the team members shall be clearly outlined in all reports submitted to the
extent that such progress may be assessed for individual letter grade. At the end of the project, all students
are expected to turn in a final report containing the complete details of the project for archival purpose. All
project reports may be archived at cfi.iitm.ac.in in a keyword searchable format for future students’ use.While
delivering project goals is important, the overarching objective of this course is to ensure that the students
benefit technologically and realize the importance of planning, discipline and professionalism in the creative
engineering process. This shall form the guiding principle for awarding letter grades.

Credit Distribution: C: L: T: P: E: O: TH:

Course Type:

Description:In this course, we will cover both traditional and modern aspects of computer vision. The
overarching goal of computer vision is to enable machines/computers to infer the visual world as we humans
do. The input to a computer vision system is an image or video and the goal is to infer high level information
about the visual scene . This task is usually achieved by low-level processing such as feature extraction from
image/video, followed by mid-level processing such as grouping/segmentation, and ultimately by high level
inference such as object and scene recognition. Inferring 3D geometry from an image or video is another
important aspect of computer vision. We will cover both traditional and modern (deep learning) techniques
for low, mid and high level vision and 3D geometry.

CourseContent:●Quick review of Deep Learning Multilayer perceptron (MLP), Convolutional Neural

Network (CNN), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) ●Low level vision Edge, line and corner detections; Image

Credit Distribution: C: L: T: P: E: O: TH:

Course Type:

Description:In this course, we will cover both traditional and modern aspects of computer vision. The
overarching goal of computer vision is to enable machines/computers to infer the visual world as we humans
do. The input to a computer vision system is an image or video and the goal is to infer high level information
about the visual scene . This task is usually achieved by low-level processing such as feature extraction from
image/video, followed by mid-level processing such as grouping/segmentation, and ultimately by high level
inference such as object and scene recognition. Inferring 3D geometry from an image or video is another
important aspect of computer vision. We will cover both traditional and modern (deep learning) techniques
for low, mid and high level vision and 3D geometry.

CourseContent:●Quick review of Deep LearningMultilayer perceptron (MLP), Convolutional Neural Network

(CNN), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)●Low level visionEdge, line and corner detections; Image filtering;
