授课人简介：Chong-Yung Chi (祁忠勇) received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, in 1983. From 1983 to 1988, he was with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California. He has been a Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering since 1989 and the Institute of Communications Engineering (ICE) since 1999 (also the Chairman of ICE during 2002-2005), National Tsing Hua University, Hsinchu, Taiwan. He has published more than 210 technical papers (with citations more than 3400 times by Google-Scholar), including more than 80 journal papers (mostly in IEEE Trans. Signal Processing), more than 130 peer-reviewed conference papers, 4 book chapters, and 2 books, including a new textbook (432 pages), Convex Optimization for Signal Processing and Communications, CRC Press, 2017 (which has been popularly used in an invited 2-week intensive short course 12 times in 8 major universities in China since 2010 before its publication). His current research interests include signal processing for wireless communications, convex analysis and optimization for blind source separation, biomedical and hyperspectral image analysis.

Dr. Chi is a senior member of IEEE. He has been a Technical Program Committee member for many IEEE sponsored and co-sponsored workshops, symposiums and conferences on signal processing and wireless communications, including Co-organizer and General Co-chairman of 2001 IEEE Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC), and Co-Chair of Signal Processing for Communications (SPC) Symposium, ChinaCOM 2008 & Lead Co-Chair of SPC Symposium, ChinaCOM 2009. He was an Associate Editor (AE) of IEEE Trans. Signal Processing (5/2001~4/2006, 1/2012~12/2015), IEEE Trans. Circuits and Systems II (1/2006-12/2007), IEEE Trans. Circuits and Systems I (1/2008-12/2009), AE of IEEE Signal Processing Letters (6/2006~5/2010), and a member of Editorial Board of Signal Processing (6/2005~5/2008), and an editor (7/2003~12/2005) as well as a Guest Editor (2006) of EURASIP Journal on Applied Signal Processing. He was a member of Signal Processing Theory and Methods Technical Committee (SPTM-TC) (2005-2010), IEEE Signal Processing Society, a member of Signal Processing for Communications and Networking Technical Committee (SPCOM-TC) (2011-2016). Currently, he is a member of Sensor Array and Multichannel Technical Committee (SAM-TC), IEEE Signal Processing Society.

课程教材：

Chong-Yung Chi, Wei-Chiang Li and Chia-Hsiang Lin, Convex Optimization for Signal Processing and Communications: From Fundamentals to Applications, CRC Press, 2017.

课程要求：

A hard copy or electronic version of the textbook is needed for every participant.

It is suggested that each participant previews the associated chapters to be covered prior to the next lecture.

1. Core knowledge of CVX Optimization (Chapters 2,3,4,9,10) will be taught in detail. Some homework assignments will be given for checking if the core knowledge has been learned well.

2. Applications of CVX Optimization (Chapters 5,6,7,8) will be taught in a more Question & Answers fashion. Then a term project will be given for hands-on experience for participants to practice how to solve a cutting-edge research problem using fundamentals of CVX Optimization.
