Today is the first schooling day at KTH. Morning was spent in DD2423 lecture. DD2423 is also know as Image Processing and Computer Vision. I was surprised that Stephane is taking this course too. Haha… There’s someone I can chit chat with during the lesson breaks. Anyway, I got to know Thomas, a Swedish Master student. A pleasant gentleman who was very kind to explain to me the academic credit system in KTH. Thomas also highlighted to me that I can download a copy of MATLAB from KTH website to do the course labs.
The lunch was spent at the Nymble, where many students gather to heat up their lunch. Stephane and I chose to have the lunch (sandwiches) unheated because the queue in front of the microwave ovens was too long.
Stephane told me that he had purchased one apartment in Paris and took a 30 year loan. Wow… Amazing. I wish I can buy one property. Anyway, he’s staying with his girlfriend in that apartment. At the moment, his girlfriend is ill. Hope she’s recovering quickly.
We ran into Thomas during lunch time at one of the benches in block D. Haha… He’s taking Hybrid System with Stephane at 1pm. Since I have no class till 3pm, I retired to the upper floor and rest at one of the benches. In the mean time, I tested out the WIFI connection with my mobile phone.
The afternoon lesson was Image and Video Processing (EN2401). The professor is an gentleman with a gentle voice. Luckily, the class size is rather small. Even the lecture is conducted in a seminar room, unlike the lecture hall back in NUS. I guess the student to teacher ratio in KTH is much lower than NUS. This is a good thing.
These 2 courses use same reference text, which I brought over from Singapore. The projects and labs in these 2 courses will be done in MATLAB. Hopefully, the similarities in these two courses will lessen the extend of preparation works for me.
Time to download the course materials.
