In recent years, the commercial audio world has seen an increasing number of application of machine learning in commercial audio products...

This webinar will address the problem of identifying the structure of an undirected graph from the observation of signals defined on its nodes. Fundamentally, the unknown graph encodes direct relationships between signal elements, which we aim to recover from observable indirect relationships generated by a diffusion process on the graph. 

As a reminder for continuing chapter chairs and for incoming chapter chairs for 2019, we would like to highlight a valuable resource available to you. Launched last year was IEEE OU Analytics, a web-based business intelligence tool to deliver essential metrics on memberships or subscriptions to OUs, including Societies, Councils, Technical Communities, etc. 

The Signal Processing Society is pleased to announce the 5-Minute Video Clip Contest (5-MICC) at ICASSP 2020 in Barcelona (May 4-8). The topic chosen this year is Beamforming and the submitted video can cover any aspects of beamforming related areas.

The IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) announced the 2020 Class of Distinguished Lecturers and Distinguished Industry Speakers for the term of 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2021, which are noted below.  The IEEE SPS Distinguished Lecturer (DL) Program provides a means for Chapters to have access to well-known educators and authors in the fields of signal processing to lecture at Chapter meetings. 

The Signal Processing Society (SPS) has 13 Technical Committees and 2 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) that support a broad selection of signal processing-related activities defined by the scope of the Society.

The call for nominations for the SPS Fellow Evaluation Committee has been extended to 22 November 2019.  While all nominations will be considered, we are specifically seeking additional nominations for individuals with a background in the image, video, multidimensional signal processing area.  

Following up on the successful challenge sessions organized during ICIP 2019, we are organizing the 2020 Challenge Sessions with new and more exciting problems that aim at engaging the image and video processing research community.

Please be advised that IEEE gauges the vitality of a chapter by tracking how many meetings are reported during the year through vTools.  If a chapter reports "0" meetings for three consecutive years, the chapter is placed on a dissolution list that is reviewed at the November Board Meeting.
