In my book Signal and Noise, I use LEGO MINDSTORMS components alongside smartphones and other technical devices to demonstrate methods of data acquisition in the geosciences. Here is an update. Continue reading “MATLAB/LEGO MINDSTORMS Practical Update”
The Community tab of the MathWorks website now offers the new AI Chat Playground. This allows you to transfer programming tasks to an AI – and try them out directly. Continue reading “The New MATLAB AI Chat Playground”
After 30 years of teaching statistical methods in the geosciences, I would like to give a few tips for our next generation. Back then, I was in awe of a term like chi-square test and kept my hands off it for a long time. However, I could not avoid complicated methods such as spectral analysis and filtering, because my doctoral project was about signal processing of paleoceanographic time series. Here we go.
