Octave Software
Much of my research work uses the
Matlab
/
Octave
language.
Assignments for ELG 7173
(Topics in Signal Processing II: Computational Techniques in Medical Imaging)
are recommended to be done in Matlab / Octave.
While the School (SITE) has a Matlab site license, this
is not available to people working from their own computers
or at home. I am providing octave software and documentation
here as a resource for these applications.

Octave for Linux
Most linux distributions with octave prepackaged.
If you are using Redhat, Mandrake, Debian, or SuSE, then
you should have the option of installing octave from the
distribution disks.
Octave for Linux is more robust and quicker
than octave for an equivalent win32 system.
Note, however, that some distributions do not compile
with the ATLAS fast math libraries.

Octave for *nix, MacOSX
Octave is available for most unix systems and for Mac OSX.
For information, refer to the
help-octave mailing list.
