Signal processing

Signal processing takes data detected through sensors as code and processes it into information usable for a specific purpose by humanity or computers. Applications in the field include hearing aids, sensors for autonomous vehicles and automatic transcription software.

Electrical engineering faculty members in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University are conducting research in a variety of facets of signal processing, including developing technology to distinguish between speech generated by human voices and artificial intelligence, the use of machine learning to classify images, using neural networks for adaptive sensing and recovery, and more.
