Course Description The purpose of this course is to introduce some basic principles, methods, and results of programming languages. Particular emphasis will be given to formal semantics and type theory due to the important application of the theory of programming languages as a rigorous foundation for software engineering in formal specification and verification. The main topics covered in the course include among others operational, axiomatic, and denotational semantics of imperative and functional languages with higher-order types, along with some fundamental mathematical techniques used to formalize and reason about programming languages. Beyond exploring the classic semantic theory, the course tries to give some hints on the latest development of programming languages with features such as concurrency and probability. This course provides students an opportunity to appreciate the benefits of the rigorous analysis of programming concepts. After successful completion of this course, students will be encouraged to pursue more advanced topics in formal methods.

Instructors Ma lizhuang
Course Description Computer graphics started with the display of data on hardcopy plotters and cathode ray tube screens soon after the introduction of computers themselves. It has grown to include the creation, storage, and manipulation of models and images of objects. These models come from a diverse and expanding set of fields, and include physical, mathematical, engineering, architectural, and even conceptual structures, natural phenomena, and so on. Computer graphics today is largely interactive: The user controls the contents, structure, and appearance of objects and of their displayed images by using input devices, such as a keyboard, mouse or touch-sensitive panel on the screen. Because of the close relationship between the input devices and the display, the handling of such devices is included in the study of computer graphics. In this course, we will introduce the basic raster graphics algorithms for drawing 3d primitives, geometric transformations in 2D and 3D space, viewing in 3D, representing curves and surfaces, visual reality and computer animation. This course provides the basis for graphics algorithm design, CAD software development and game development.

Course Description Living things encode their genetic code in DNA, and use this information to regulate biological processes. Bioinformatics is the study of living organisms viewed as dynamical information systems. We study algorithms for sequence alignment, motiffinding and gene finding, and three-dimensional structure prediction. While students can find implementations of many of these algorithms, a study of the algorithms leads to a better understanding of the assumptions and limitations of existing algorithms, and gives students the background to evaluate new ones. We explore some important biological problems, discuss mathematical models, and look at computer algorithms to solve these problems. Most of the interesting problems are intractable, so we look at heuristics. Finally, we take biological information into systems of multiple levels, focusing on the interactions of biological molecules in the contexts of biological networks.? As such, we introduce statistical learning and graphical model and other structural related methods to study biological problems as a whole.? The entire course is biologically motivated while engineering techniques are used as tools

Course Description Machine learning is to use computer to find rules or perform tasks from data. It is part of the so-called data science and is widely used in both industry and academia. It can, to some extent, remove the use of expert knowledge and explore new knowledge hidden in real world data. This course will focus on basic concepts, fundamental algorithms and practical usage of machine learning algorithms. The primary goal is to deeply understand fundamental concepts and practically master some machine learning algorithms. The topics will cover basic concepts, supervised learning (decision tree, parametric/non-parametric learning, neural network, support vector machine) and unsupervised learning (clustering, dimension reduction) and relevant extensions. As part of a teaching reformation project, the teaching will be heavily combined with two MOOC courses. Students are required to complete the relevant MOOC course and actively participate in classroom discussions. Projects related to the student's own research area will be designed as the final course work.
