Unfortunately, I couldn’t meet with HGFei before his 2 week holiday, so I will look after taking some other first steps within August: Meet with Thomas to get an idea if Matching Pursuit would be interesting for me, and get my exam pass filled out and signed by Prof. Kowol. Also, I will have some looks at introductions to Signal Analysis and get myself familiar with Matlab/Octave again.
This way, I want to have the topic for my thesis fixed until the mid of September.
