The lecture covers fundamental topics and recent developments in robust signal processing. Unlike classical signal processing, which relies strongly on the normal (Gaussian) distribution, robust methods can tolerate impulsive noise, outliers and artifacts that are frequently encountered in biomedical applications. Robust signal processing and biomedical application lectures alternate. Exercises revise the theory and apply robust signal processing algorithms to real world data.
