Goal: The purpose of this course is to provide a summary of the mathematical foundations of information and code theory and to introduce students to the general rules of code theory, compression and cryptography. During the course, students will have a basic understanding of mathematical coding techniques and will gain proficiency in security issues.
Course description: The basic principle of information theory. Information and entropy, schema of communication channel. Variable length source code – prefix code, Huffman code. Conditional entropy and mutual information measure. Channel capacity. Bug fix coding. Finite vector spaces and their relationship to coding. Data compression algorithms. Cryptographic Methods – Summaries.
