What is the relation between video streaming and climate change? This episode of 2 Minuten Wissen (in German) is about global carbon emissions caused by online video applications. We explain reasons and ideas on how to reduce these emissions.

We congratulate Sandra Bergmann, Denise Moussa, Fabian Brand, André Kaup and Christian Riess to their Best Paper Award at the International Workshop on Biometrics and Forensics (IWBF).

Alexandre Mercat will visit the LMS from May, 29th till June, 2nd 2023.

The results of the exam "Signals and Systems II" from March 31, 2023 are now available on Campo. Examination records can be inspected on May 3, 2023 at 9:00 am in room 06.025 (Cauerstr. 7).

We congratulate our colleague Matthias Kreuzer on qualifying for the final three of the IEEE Data Challenge on Industrial Systems' Health Monitoring using Vibration Signal Analysis  as part of the IEEE International Conference on Prognostics and Health Management (ICPHM) . The task of the challenge ...

We welcome Rohan Asthana, our new team member!

We congratulate Prof. Belagiannis and Alexander Tsaregorodtsev for their journal publication entitled "ParticleAugment: Sampling-based data augmentation". Data Augmentation (DA) is employed during the training process of neural networks in order to prevent overfitting on the training data as well as...

Frank Sippel investigates multispectral and hyperspectrals cameras, which capture image data that is invisible to the human eye. Such images can be applied in a large variety of applications in areas such as farming, medical imaging, or recycling.

On February 1st, Marc Windsheimer, joined in our team!

In a so-called "Lehrstuhl-Special" of the department EEI, where a professor of electrical engineering is interviewed, Prof. Kaup talks about his scientific career, research at the LMS, and the everyday life of a head of an institute.

We are happy to welcome our new colleague, Katja Kossira, in our team!

In a special interview format of the FAU, our colleage Annika Brigle talked about her research project targeting the quality enhancement of speech signals using neural networks.

Effective January 1, 2023, Walter Kellermann is a member of the Fellow Evaluation Committee of the  IEEE Signal Processing Society, which evaluates the nominations to IEEE Fellow for the IEEE Signal Processing Society.

As an IEEE Fellow since 2008 and after recently reaching the age of 65, Walter Kellermann has been appointed to IEEE Life Fellow effective January 1, 2023.

Our colleague Thomas Haubner investigates the audio quality in teleconferencing scenarios, in which multiple participants are sitting in the same room. For this application, he developed an algorithm that can effectively suppress reverberation, echoes, and noise.

For good teaching in the summer term 2022, the LMS received two awards from the student's evaluation.

We are happy to welcome our new colleague, Amir El-Ghoussan, in our team!

Prof. Dr.-Ing. André Kaup received an Award for good teaching („Preis für gute Lehre an den staatlichen Universitäten in Bayern“) from Minister Markus Blume.

At our chair, the two dotoral candidates Than Dat Nguyen and Viktoria Heimann are actively taking part in research within the research project "Empatho-Kinaesthetic Sensor Technology – Sensor Techniques and Data Analysis Methods for Empatho-Kinaesthetic Modeling and Condition monitoring” (EmpkinS).

Congratulations to our colleague Anna Meyer, who won the VDE Bayern Award 2022 for her outstanding Master thesis entitled "Deep Learning-Based Camera Adaptive Image Enhancement".
