About the session

The provision of an intelligent information infrastructure is vital to future growth in the UK and success in this area will be underpinned by advancements in the field of signal and data processing.

With the continued explosive growth of the Internet and mobile devices there are increasing challenges in processing, analysing, visualising, and distributing signals and data, commonly acquired from a heterogeneous mix of multimodal sensors and platforms, to extract useful information from the large data sets that state of the art sensor technology is now able to collect in real time from cluttered environments.

Application domains include defence systems, the digital economy and CYBER issues, healthcare, the Internet of Things, intelligent cities and sustainability including energy management - the list is almost limitless, the common denominator for new solutions in these areas is intelligent signal processing, incorporating information extraction and visualisation.

This two-day conference will offer you with a unique opportunity to gain insight into state-of-the-art technology in the field and to network with leading UK and international researchers and scientists.

    David Bull

    University of Bristol, Professor of Signal Processing

    David R. Bull PhD, FIET, FIEEE, CEng received the B.Sc. degree from the University of Exeter, U.K, in 1980, the M.Sc. degree from the University of Manchester, U.K, in 1983, and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Wales, Cardiff, U.K, in 1988. He currently holds the Chair in Signal Processing at the University of Bristol where he is also Director of Bristol Vision Institute (BVI) which he co-founded in 2008. His previous roles include Lecturer at the University of Wales (Cardiff) and Systems Engineer for Rolls Royce. He was Head of the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department at Bristol between 2001 and 2006.David has worked widely in the fields of image and video processing and video communications and has published some 450 academic papers and articles and has written three books. He has also given numerous invited/keynote lectures and tutorials. He holds many patents, several of which have been exploited commercially. His research interests include problems of image and video communication and analysis for wireless, internet, surveillance, broadcast and immersive applications. He has been awarded two IEE Premiums for his work. He has recently published a new textbook ‘Communicating Pictures – a course in image and video coding’, published by Academic Press in 2014.David has contributed to the organization of many conferences, to several technical committees and has undertaken numerous editorial duties. David was the organizer of the IEEE Themes Workshop in 2011 and was also the Lead Editor for a Special Issue of the IEEE Journal on Selected Topics in Signal Processing on the topic of 'Emerging Technologies for Video Compression'. He is on the Executive Committee for IEEE ICASSP 2019 and will act as Tutorial Chair. He is a past member of the Editorial Board for the Academic Press Series on Digital Signal Processing and its Applications and will become an Associate Editor and Editorial Board member for IEEE Trans. CSVT from January 2016. David has acted as a consultant for many major companies and organizations across the world, both on research strategy and innovative technologies. He is also regularly invited to advise government - he is, or has been, a member of DTI Foresight, MoD, DSAC, EPSRC SAN and HEFCE REF committees. In 2001, he co-founded ProVision Communication Technologies, Ltd., Bristol, and was its Director and Chairman until it was acquired by Global Invacom in 2011. David is a chartered engineer, a Fellow of the IET and a Fellow of the IEEE.
