Lecture notes by the professor.Type of delivery of the course
Classroom lectures and exercises.Type of evaluation
The verification of learning takes place through a written test lasting two hours and through the realization of a project. The test is organized through a certain number of open-ended questions, aimed at verifying the level of understanding of concepts and methods presented in the course. Exam papers from previous years are available for students. The project consists in applying the methods and techniques presented in class to concrete cases.
