Amennyiben szeretne valaki jönni, megköszönöm, ha küld egy emailt az orosz@mit.bme.hu címre.

Seminar at the Budapest University of Technology
SenSIP Research in Classical and Quantum AI for Energy and other Applications
Andreas Spanias, Professor and Center Director
Fellow IEEE, Fulbright Research Scholar
School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering
Director SenSIP Center and Industry Consortium
Arizona State University, Main Campus, Tempe AZ, USA

Abstract
This seminar at the Budapest University of Technology, will describe research activities of the Sensor Signal and Information Processing (SenSIP) center in AI and quantum machine learning for solar energy and other applications. The SenSIP center has several research projects funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Fulbright program and by industry. Quantum signal processing projects include development of quantum simulations for signal analysis-synthesis, imaging, radar and solar energy applications. Recent NSF funded efforts focused on implementing quantum Fourier transforms for signal analysis-synthesis. On the other hand, industry research is focused on collaborative Sensor and AI projects which are supported by members of the
center which include Alphacore, Lightsense, NXP, PSG, Poundra, and Raytheon. More specifically projects sponsored by the SenSIP center include machine learning algorithms for sensor calibration, PV fault detection, smart cameras and radar systems. In the seminar, we will present some of our results in AI and quantum machine learning for solar energy monitoring and control. In addition, we will describe opportunities for collaboration with international universities.

Biography
Andreas Spanias is Professor in the School of Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University (ASU). He is also the director of the Sensor Signal and Information Processing (SenSIP) center and the founder of the SenSIP industry consortium (also an NSF I/UCRC site). His research interests are in the areas of adaptive signal processing, speech processing, quantum machine learning and sensor systems. He and his students developed the award winning software J-DSP which was sponsored by NSF. Dr. Spanias is author of two textbooks: Audio Processing and Coding by Wiley and DSP; An Interactive Approach (2nd Ed.). He contributed to more than 350 papers, 11 monographs, and 26 US patents. He served as Associate Editor of the
IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing and as General Co-chair of IEEE ICASSP-99. He also served as the IEEE Signal Processing Vice-President for Conferences. Andreas Spanias is co-recipient of the 2002 IEEE Donald G. Fink paper prize award and was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 2003. He served as Distinguished Lecturer for the IEEE Signal processing society. He is currently heading four NSF workforce development projects as a PI. He received the 2018 IEEE Phoenix Chapter award with citation: “For significant innovations and patents in signal processing for sensor systems.” He also received the 2018 IEEE Region 6 Outstanding Educator Award (across 12 states) with citation: “For outstanding research and education contributions in signal processing.” He is a Senior Member of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI). He was recently selected for a Fulbright Research Scholar award with residence at the Ss. Cyril and Methodius University and regional activities
in other countries in the Balkans.
