Just take his classes if you don't want to learn anything. I mean the exams are easy because they are straight from the homework and the book. But seriously... I think he's too old now to teach because he just rambles on what goes on in his head and doesn't really 'teach' much.
Grading is Midterm, Final, and Project only. Homework problems are optional and not graded.
Be warned, this class is inverse classroom ever since COVID happened and Prof. Speyer decided to just recycle his Zoom lectures. You have to watch 4 hours of lecture a week on your own, and the actual "classes" are more like office hours where the professor tries to answer questions but often ends up rambling about unrelated concepts. The material is hard and extremely loaded with mathematical proofs that I don't think end up mattering for engineering. Speyer just really likes probability...
Luckily Speyer seems to curve generously. I got ~70 on the midterm, and probably a bit worse on the final (never got my grade back) and ended up with an A-. The project takes a bit of time but is very doable, and I think he likes to see students do well on the project, since it's basically implementing a Kalman Filter in a simulated system.
The class is difficult....Although I am not clever. The grading is really friendly, although you may not learnt too much useful knowledge here.
