Course description
The last two decades have seen enormous technological progress, leading to innovative products and services that heavily rely on mathematical achievements. Modern mathematics is crucial for advanced applications in digital media. It underpins the secure and reliable transmission of digital data, ensures information confidentiality, protects intellectual property, and aids in pattern recognition in image and video data. It also plays a vital role in analyzing and optimizing data networks and satellite-based navigation. Without modern mathematics, we wouldn't have mobile phones, secure online payments, digital TV, MP3 players, quick web searches, or QR codes. The modeling, analysis, and simulation of computer and social networks also depend on advanced mathematical methods. The applications of modern mathematics span from micro- and consumer electronics, including social media, to vehicle telematics systems and safety-critical activities like those of the BND and BSI. In medical technology, it supports imaging processes and the classification of image data. Understanding and implementing processes like cryptology isn't enough. Constantly adapting and developing these procedures, and critically assessing their adequacy, security, and reliability, requires a deep understanding of mathematical disciplines such as coding theory, cryptology, and pattern recognition. This level of expertise can't be achieved in non-mathematical courses. F
