Development of new optical transmission methods based on nonlinear Fourier transform.

In patent no. 10,055,660 a system, a non-transitory computer readable medium, and a method for Arabic handwriting recognition are provided. The method includes acquiring an input image representative of a handwritten Arabic text from a user, partitioning the input image into a plurality of regions, determining a bag of features representation...

In hospitals, doctors and nurses keep vigilant watch over patients' vital signs and blood tests to catch the first symptoms of sepsis. In this life-threatening condition, the body responds to an infection with widespread inflammation that can lead to organ failure. 

The field of information theory – dating back to the seminal work by Claude E. Shannon in 1948 - is considered to be one of the landmark intellectual achievements of the 20th century, underpinning advances in compression and communication of data that underpins the information age.

Computer architectures and systems are becoming ever more powerful but increasingly more complex. With the end of frequency scaling (about 2004) and the era of multicores/manycores/accelerators, it is exceedingly hard to extract the promised performance, in particular, at a reasonable energy budget.

National University of Singapore

The Department of Computer Science at the National University of Singapore is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to work with Dr. Jonathan Scarlett.

Classical algorithms for the multiple measurement vector (MMV) problem assume either independent columns for the solution matrix or certain models of correlation among the columns. The correlation structure in the previous MMV formulation does not capture the signals well for some applications like photoplethysmography (PPG) signal extraction where the signals are independent and linearly mixed in a certain manner.

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing

The focus of this paper is on detection theory for union of subspaces (UoS). To this end, generalized likelihood ratio tests (GLRTs) are presented for detection of signals conforming to the UoS model and detection of the corresponding “active” subspace. One of the main contributions of this paper is bounds on the performances of these GLRTs in terms of geometry of subspaces under various assumptions on the observation noise.

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing

Recovery of certain piecewise continuous signals from noisy observations has been a major challenge in sciences and engineering. In this paper, in a tight-dimensional representation space, we exploit sparsity hidden in a class of possibly discontinuous signals named finite-dimensional piecewise continuous (FPC) signals. More precisely, we propose a tight-dimensional linear transformation which reveals a certain sparsity in discrete samples of the FPC signals.

Alan Bovik has a storied career. An American engineer, vision scientist and Primetime Emmy Award winner, Bovik holds the Cockrell Family Endowed Regents Chair in Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, where he has been the Director of the Laboratory for Image and Video Engineering for more than three decades.

Speech recognition technology allows computers to take spoken audio, interpret it and generate text from it. But how do computers understand human speech? The short answer is…the wonder of signal processing. 

Wichita State University

I have an open position in my group for a fully funded PhD student. The requirements are strong background in Mathematics and Signal Processing. Familiarity with Machine Learning and Communication Theory are preferable.

IEEE SPS has built a streamlined mechanism for employers to add a job announcement by simply filling in a simple job opportunity submission Web form related to a particular TC field. To submit job announcements for a particular Technical Committee, the submission form can be found by visiting the page below and selecting a particular TC. Visit the SPS Job Submission Form.

The IEEE Signal Processing Society continues to track emerging technical areas. As a result, the Society has decided to create two new SPS Technical Interest Profile (TIP) Code categories in the fields of Data Science and Autonomous Systems to keep pace with the expanding technical disciplines.

The Signal Processing Society (SPS) has 12 Technical Committees and 3 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) that support a broad selection of signal processing-related activities defined by the scope of the Society.

The fourth edition of SS12 ASIA: AGE OF INNOVATION 2018, a Coding and Making Challenge organized by Madras IEEE Education Society, was hosted in NSBM (National School of Business Management) Green University Town, Homagama, Colombo, Sri Lank.
