This course is a broad introduction to computer vision for data science. Topics include various low-level image processing methods and high-level vision tasks like image classification and object detection, with modern approaches based on deep learning. Student learn computer vision algorithms and implement them in python. Students should be proficient in python programming with numpy for assignments. Other python libraries, such as opencv (cv2), scipy, and matplotlib will be used, but students do not have to be proficient with them.

The goal of this course is in introducing popular skills for analyzing economic data. We attempt to achieve this goal by getting familiar with the well-known econometric analyses and linking this to the knowledge on the numerical outputs generated by standard statistical packages. In attaining this goal, our interests will be focused more on cross-sectional data and their slight extensions. There are two reasons for this focus. First, analysis of cross-sectional data is a building bloc for the analysis of many other data sets. Second, the analysis of cross-sectional data is easier than analyzing other data sets as they do not involve too much complication that comes from the variation assumptions. Eventually, by these, studying cross-sectional data becomes a good starting point for achieving the specified objectives, even though their applicability is not so limited. After completing this course, students are expected to be able to conduct the following: Understanding the implicit assumptions behind economic data analysis; Interpreting the numerical outputs generated by standard statistical packages.

Prerequisite: Mathematics for economics and statistics; Recommended: Mathematical statistics.

This course examines the literature of wisdom, both ancient and modern, and looks at how reading literature can deepen, enrich, and improve one's life in modern society.

This course aims to provide basic mathematical concepts that have been widely used in economics. Topics include feasibility (Farkas Lemma), convex sets, linear programming, and non-linear programming. Economic applications are discussed throughout the course in order to illustrate how mathematics is used in economic theory.

Digitalization has significantly impacted modern society, especially the media industry. It has changed the way we deliver messages and led the change of media users, who are now both audience and creator. Digitalization has also catalyzed the prevalence and importance of data. Specifically, in marketing communication, information about audiences is abundant and various. This course explores the new concept of brand communication in the current marketing and media environment from theoretical and practical perspectives, and provides students with diverse applications of experience to brand marketing discipline. 

This course provides a study of Korean famous prose written in Chinese characters. Intellectual and historical Korean writing is based on Chinese Characters. The course focuses on reading and exploring prose in the original language. However, since students may not be familiar with Chinese characters, the lecture focuses on reading the original text, but also exploring the text’s originality.
