Hi!
I have just joined. I am Brazilian, or better said Japanese-Brazilian, and I live in the Netherlands.
I have started learning Japanese in the past, but (like many people) I gave up because of the dreaded Kanji. I have to go to Japan for business next year, so I decided to give it a try again.
Looking forward to try TextFugu’s method, especially to learn Kanji.
Nice to meet you all!
Edson
Hi Edson, welcome to TextFugu! Good luck with your studies!
Edson, Welcome! Don’t let kanji scare you from learning Japanese. If you have a good method for learning it, it’s really not so bad. :)
If you don’t mind me asking, what is your business?
Good luck with your studies!

AnonymousWelcome to Textfugu, Edson!
Hi, Cassandra, I work with research in statistical signal processing.
I will go to Kyutech, in Kitakyushu, which is close to the city of my antecessors (Fukuoka).
Best regards,
Edson
I’m not sure what that entails, but it sounds fancy. ;)
Welcome to TF!
AnonymousStatistical signal processing is an area of Applied Mathematics and Signal Processing that treats signals as stochastic processes, dealing with their statistical properties (e.g., mean, covariance, etc.).
Written by me, obviously.
Thank you, Mr. Wikipedia. ;) Now can you explain in plain English what that means?
LOL, I’ll give it a go, but I could be wrong.
It looks like it’s the study of how a signal, once generated, changes and evolves, depending on various factors, by the time it hits the receiver. For instance, looking at computer signals going through a WiFi connection, and how those signals change and possibly evolve by the time they hit another computer.
I would assume that if such things weren’t studied, the data could become corrupt by the time it reaches the end user, and thus would need to be modified to take those variables into account.
That’s my guess from reading those links anyway… :P
Hehe it is a good guess =D… But statistical signal processing can be used for many things other than data transmission… like tracking vehicles, analyzing stocks and commodity prices, and studying medicine collateral effects.
