SHOJI MAKINO
Shoji Makino received B. E., M. E., and Ph. D. degrees from
Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan, in 1979, 1981, and 1993,
respectively. He joined Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation
(NTT) in 1981. Since then, he has been engaged in research on
adaptive filtering technologies and the realization of acoustic echo
cancellation. He is now a Professor at the University of Tsukuba. His
research interests include blind source separation of convolutive
mixtures of speech, and acoustic signal processing for speech and
audio applications.
He received the ICA Unsupervised Learning Pioneer Award in 2006, the IEEE MLSP Competition Award in 2007, the TELECOM System Technology Award in 2004, the Achievement Award of the Institute of Electronics, Information, and Communication Engineers (IEICE) in 1997, and the Outstanding Technological Development Award of the Acoustical Society of Japan (ASJ) in 1995. He is the author or co-author of more than 200 articles in journals and conference proceedings and is responsible for more than 150 patents. He was a Keynote Speaker at ICA2007, a Tutorial speaker at ICASSP2007.
He has served on SPS Awards Board (2006-08) and SPS Conference Board (2002-04). He is a member of the James L. Flanagan Speech & Audio Processing Award Committee. He was an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Speech and Audio Processing (2002-05) and is an Associate Editor of the EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing. He is a member of SPS Audio and Electroacoustics Technical Committee and the Chair of the Blind Signal Processing Technical Committee of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society. He was the Vice President of the Engineering Sciences Society of the IEICE (2007-08), and the Chair of the Engineering Acoustics Technical Committee of the IEICE (2006-08). He is a member of the International IWAENC Standing committee and a member of the International ICA Steering Committee. He was the General Chair of WASPAA2007, the General Chair of IWAENC2003, the Organizing Chair of ICA2003, and is the designated Plenary Chair of ICASSP2012.
Dr. Makino is an IEEE Fellow, an IEICE Fellow, a council member of the ASJ, and a member of EURASIP.
