PhD Studentships

PhD Studentships in Signal Processing Techniques
 
Programe of Electrical Engineering,  Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
 
Applications are invited for PhD studentships in signal processing techniques. These studentships are funded by the CNPq/CAPES research councils in Brazil. The topic of the project is open in the broad area of signal processing techniques. Potential topics include:
- Adaptive signal processing algorithms
- Distributed signal processing techniques

What Should We Learn? Bringing Wearable Sensors into the Classroom

By bringing research into the curriculum, this article explores new opportunities to refresh some classic signal processing courses. Since 2015, we in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) Department of Imperial College London, United Kingdom, have explored the extent to which the level of student engagement and learning can be enhanced by inviting the students to perform signal processing exercises on their own physiological data.

How Are Signal Processing Engineers Vital to Digital Assistants?

Technologies that at first seem like magic soon become so commonplace that we no longer even think about how amazing they are – or wonder how they operate. Our digital home assistants – Amazon’s Alexa, Google Home and their emerging rivals – have been with us long enough that we take for granted they can understand our unique voices, commands and questions, even with other noise occurring around them.
