Topics include basic theory, methods for quadratic programming, active set strategies for linear constraints, and penalty and successive quadratic programming methods for nonlinearly constrained problems. Requisites: Requires prerequisite course of CSCI 5606 (minimum grade B). Restricted to graduate students only.
Students seeking the master of engineering degree must complete a creative investigation project, including a written report, supervised by a member of the graduate faculty. Department enforced prereq., completion of 21 hours towards the ME degree. Requisites: Restricted to graduate student Computer Sciences (CSEN) students only.
Students determine capstone research question, conduct literature review, develop research methodology and project plan, write a proposal, and select capstone committee. Requisites: Requires prerequisite course of EMEN 5825 or EMEN 5900 (minimum grade C+). Restricted to graduate students in Engineering Management Program (EMEN) only.
Provides an overview of current research topics in computational biology and health informatics, with a focus on research conducted on campus. Each week students will attend an on-campus seminar or a presentation by an on-campus research group. Prepares students to participate in a research project. Same as CSCI 4810.
Continues EMEN 6805 as the second half of a two-course sequence for the engineering management capstone project.
