The IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) announces the 2026 Class of Distinguished Lecturers and Distinguished Industry Speakers for the term of 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2027, 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. While many IEEE Societies have similar programs, the SPS provides a substantial amount of financial support for the Chapters to take advantage of this service.
