Digital signal processing is an area of engineering dedicated to the analysis, treatment and classification of digital audio, voice, video, image, geophysical and other signals, which are widely used in industry, medicine and applied sciences. The processing refers to concrete applications such as: acquisition, filtering, characterization, study and recognition of signals. The research fields of the Digital Signal Processing and Control group cover applications in the above mentioned areas, such as: biomedical signal processing, pattern recognition, telemedicine and signal modeling. In addition, the group supports activities within undergraduate courses in engineering, mathematics and computer science and graduate courses in automation.
