Combined-section evening hour exams have been scheduled from 7 p.m.
to 8 p.m. on Mondays February 26 and April 9 in Room 269 Everitt Laboratory.
You may bring one 8.5" by 11" sheet of notes to each hour exam;
both sides of the sheet can be used, but the exams are closed-book
and closed-notes otherwise.
Electronic devices (calculators, cellphones, pagers, laptops, etc.)
are neither necessary nor permitted.
You can find copies of old hour exams by going to
the web pages of
previous offerings
of ECE 413.
Final Examination:
The Final Exam is scheduled for Tuesday, May 8, 1:30-4:30 p.m.
in 269 EL.
- You are allowed to bring THREE 8.5" by 11" sheets of notes to the exam;
both sides of the sheets can be used, but the exam is closed-book
and closed-notes otherwise.
Electronic devices (calculators, cellphones, pagers, laptops, etc.)
are neither necessary nor permitted.
- You are expected to know what is meant by
- a Bernoulli random variable with parameter p
- a binomial random variable with parameters (n,p)
- a geometric random variable with parameter p
- a Pascal or negative binomial random variable with parameters (r,p)
- a Poisson random variable with parameter (lambda)
- a random variable uniformly distributed on (a,b)
- an exponential random variable with parameter (lambda)
- a gamma random variable with parameters (t, lambda)
- a Gaussian random variable with mean (mu) and variance
(sigma)2
- a bivariate random variable (X,Y) uniformly distributed on a
region of the plane
and
- jointly Gaussian random variables with means (mu)x
and (mu)y respectively, variances (sigmax)2
and (sigmay)2 respectively, and correlation
coefficient (rho)
If you have forgotten the formulas for the pmf/pdf/CDF
or the mean and variance of these (or do not have them written down on your
sheets of notes,) you will not
be given these pieces of information during the exam.
A table of values of the unit Gaussian CDF will be supplied to you if
it is needed on the exam.
