Signal Processing Advances in Robots and Autonomy

The capabilities of robots and autonomous systems have increased dramatically over the past years. This success story partly depends on advances in signal processing which provide appropriate and efficient analysis of sensor data and enable autonomy. A key element of the transition of signal processing output to its exploitation inside robots and autonomous systems is the way uncertainty is man...

Advances in Electrocardiogram Signal Processing and Analysis

Since itsinvention by the Dutchman Willem Einthoven (1860–1927) during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when it was little more than a scientific curiosity, the elec-trocardiogram (ECG) has developed into one of the most important and widely used quantitative diagnostic tools in medicine. It is essential for the identification of disorders of the cardiac rhythm, extremely useful for the ...

Advances in Signal Processing for Maritime Applications

The maritime domain continues to be important for our society. Significant investments continue to be made to increase our knowledge about what “happens” underwater, whether at or near the sea surface, within the water column, or at the seabed. The latest geophysical, archaeological, and oceanographical surveys deliver more accurate global knowledge at increased resolutions. Surveillance applic...

Journal of Advances in Medical Education & Professionalism

Medical education is a new discipline whichstarted about 50 years ago. The pioneer of thisdiscipline was George Miller from the Universityof Chicago who suggested most of prominentmedical professionals have little or no knowledge ofpsychology of learning and advocated the validity ofpresent medical education in the world.He hypothesized that while very eminent and welltrained scientific oriente...
