News and Resources for Members of the IEEE Signal Processing Society

Society News

Each year, the IEEE Board of Directors confers the grade of Fellow on up to one-tenth of one percent of the members. To qualify for consideration, an individual must have been a Member, normally for five years or more, and a Senior Member at the time for nomination to Fellow. The grade of Fellow recognizes unusual distinction in IEEE’s designated fields.

The Signal Processing Society congratulates the following 51 SPS members who were recognized with the grade of Fellow as of 1 January 2015:

Are you passionate about social media and interested in improving the IEEE Signal Processing Society's online presence? We are looking for a lead volunteer to Chair an effort to organize, represent and improve the Society’s online content and social media presence. The position will have high visibility and interactions with other Society volunteers and IEEE/SPS staff across the organization. The primary responsibilities are noted below.

This past November, longtime IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) member and IEEE Fellow Dr. Thomas Kailath received the National Medal of Science in Washington, DC. U.S. President Barack Obama presented the award to Dr. Kailath "for transformative contributions to the fields of information and system science, for distinctive and sustained mentoring of young scholars, and for translation of scientific ideas into entrepreneurial ventures that have had a significant impact on industry."

IEEE has announced the recipients of the 2015 IEEE medals. Three Signal Processing Society members were awarded with IEEE medals for 2015: James Julius Spilker (IEEE Edison Medal), Harry L. Van Trees (IEEE Jack S. Kilby Signal Processing Medal) and Richard Gordon Baranuik (IEEE James H. Mulligan, Jr. Education Medal).

128 Signal Processing Society Members Elevated to Senior Member

The IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) is honored to announce the elevation of 128 of its members to the grade of IEEE Senior Member. These members have demonstrated outstanding professional performance, exhibited professional maturity through long-term experience, and established themselves as leaders in their respective IEEE-designated fields of interest. Senior Member is the only membership grade that is eligible to be nominated for IEEE Fellow. The new Senior Members of the IEEE Signal Processing Society are:

In this series, we introduce a member of our Society by means of an interview. This month, we are happy to introduce Le An from University of California, Riverside, who recently finished his PhD thesis, "Real-World Person Identification”.

The signal processing chapter of the IEEE Singapore Section was founded by me in 1989 with over twenty petitioners. It was established first as a special interest group in 1988 and subsequently in 1989 it was upgraded to the chapter status.
