The Dangers of Autonomous Driving Technology
Will autonomous vehicles kill people? The answer is almost certainly yes. But, human drivers kill people too. In 2016 the U.S. had 37,461 deaths in 34,436 human-operated motor vehicle crashes, a staggering average of 102 per day, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. An additional 2,350,000 are injured or disabled. These figures are alarming, but there’s a solution on the horizon.

PhD Stipends in Low-Resource Speech Recognition for Hearing Assistive Devices
Manual operation of hearing assistive devices is cumbersome in various situations. With advances in machine learning and speech technology, voice interfaces are being deployed for hearing assistive devices. Hearing assistive devices are characterized by strict memory and computational complexity constraints and by the fact that they are expected to operate flawlessly, even in acoustically challenging situations.
Embedded Systems Feel the Beat in New Orleans - Highlights from the IEEE Signal Processing Cup 2017 Student Competition
Feeling the beat of music and then producing it, e.g. by foot-tapping, is an intrinsically real-time process. As listeners, we do not wait for the beat to occur before tapping our foot; instead we make predictions about when the next beat in the music will occur. Likewise, performing musicians have a shared sense of beat which is what allows them to play in time together.
IEEE JSTSP Special Issue on Acoustic Source Localization and Tracking in Dynamic Real-life Scenes
special issue on "Acoustic source localization and tracking in dynamic real-life scenes" to be published in IEEE Journal on Selected Topics in Signal Processing.
The special issue aims to present recent advances in the development of signal processing methods for localization and tracking of acoustic sources and the associated theory and applications. To address the challenges raised by the real-life environment, novel methods that use modern array processing, speech processing and data inference tools, become a necessity.
