Aims

The PhD students will be made familiar with the latest achievements of the modern harmonic analysis and their applicability for the solution of practical problems of functional modeling in abstract spaces, in particular in l^2(J) (the space of discrete signals incl. images), L^(R) (the space of analog signals) and L^2(Omega;A;P) (stochastic linear time series models).
Attantion will be paid also to the problems of finding numerically stable sparse solutions in models with a large number of parameters.
