EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing welcomes submissions to the new special issue on Nonlinear Signal and Image Processing.
This special issue aims to honor Professor Giovanni Sicuranza’s technical contributions on his seventy-fifth birthday, bringing together current research results and applications in diverse fields of nonlinear signal and image processing through a combination of overview and research papers.
When Prof. Sicuranza started working on nonlinear signal processing, many techniques were too complex to be implemented in practical applications. Some of his early contributions, then, aimed at devising efficient architectures for nonlinear filtering. His polynomial filter realizations using logarithmic representation or distributed arithmetic enabled the use of these filters in practical devices. Prof. Sicuranza’s other contributions span a wide variety of areas, which include multidimensional digital filters, processing of images and image sequences, image coding, nonlinear filters and adaptive algorithms for echo cancellation and active noise control.
Many of the systems and nonlinear techniques he pioneered have found wide use in a number of modern DSP applications. Prof. Sicuranza, although retired, is still active in research and is presently studying novel families of nonlinear filters and techniques for their efficient identification (click here for an updated biography).
