IEEE Signal Processing Society Field of Interest, Mission, Vision & Diversity Statements

IEEE Signal Processing Society Mission & Vision


 

Field of Interest

Signal processing is the enabling technology for the generation, transformation, extraction, and interpretation of information. It comprises the theory, algorithms with associated architectures and implementations, and applications related to processing information contained in many different formats broadly designated as signals. Signal processing uses mathematical, statistical, computational, heuristic, and/or linguistic representations, formalisms, modeling techniques and algorithms for generating, transforming, transmitting, and learning from signals.

Mission Statement

The Signal Processing Society is an international organization whose purpose is to: advance and disseminate state-of-the-art scientific information and resources; educate the signal processing community; and provide a venue for people to interact and exchange ideas.

Vision Statement

The Signal Processing Society is a dynamic organization that is the preeminent source of signal processing information and resources to a global community. We do this by: being a one-stop source of signal processing resources; providing a variety of high quality resources to a variety of users in formats customized to their interests; adapting to a rapidly changing technical community; and being intimately involved in the education of signal processing professionals at all levels.

Diversity Statement

The IEEE Signal Processing Society adheres to the IEEE Code of Conduct and is committed to providing equal opportunity to its members, regardless of ethnicity, race, nationality, disability, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, religion, gender, age, and/or personal identity. The Society is committed to a welcoming and inclusive environment that promotes diversity in the signal processing community.

Diversity Pledge

The IEEE Signal Processing Society is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all its operations. This includes boards, committees, panels involved in governance (BoG, ExCom, and nominations to BoG and ExCom), conferences (General Chairs and Organizing Committee members, Technical Program Chairs and members, panels), publications (Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors), technical committees, distinguished lecturers, chapter chairs, officers, and staff.
