Teaching

You can find some educational videos on coding theory (following CS250/EE387) on youtube here.

You can find some educational videos on randomized algorithms (following CS265/CME309) on youtube here.

You can find my textbook with Eric Darve on numerical linear algebra from on Google Play here.  (Sorry, not free).
