Computer scientists at Washington University in St. Louis’ School of Engineering & Applied Science analyzed a huge amount of data regarding an important protein and discovered its connection in human history as well as clues about its role in complex neurological diseases.

With the explosive growth of 5G wireless technology development, signal processing techniques are playing more and more important roles in many aspects. As an industry-oriented technical committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society, Industry DSP Technology Standing Committee (IDSP-SC) is actively promoting 5G technology from a practice and industry perspective.

Now 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 at the related TC section pages.

For our March 2015 issue, we cover recent patents granted in the area of Deep Lerning techniques. The section below covers patents granted recently for natural language processing, research of neural networks, correlation analysis between data streams, document analysis and medical image enhancement.

In this series, we introduce a scientist, who uses signal processing techniques for his research findings, by means of an interview. This month, we are happy to introduce Dr. Jorge Arroyo Palacios, a postdoctoral scholar at Department of Physiological Nursing, University of California, San Francisco, whose research mainly focuses on physiological signal processing.
