pôle SIS

The Signal Image and Systems (SIS) pôle hosts about 30 permanent teachers/researchers and hosts or has hosted more than 20 visitors, about 80 PhD students and 15 post-doc researchers or contractual engineers during the last four years.

SIS carries out research mainly in

Signal Processing, both from a theoretical and application point of view. The theoretical tools focus on High Order Signal Processing, Information Theoretic Tools as well as Identification and Modelling. The specific applications range from Biology and Biomedical SP to Telecommunications and Networking .

Image processing, with focus on Image Coding and Indexing as well as on Image processing for Earth Observation and Biology.

Systems, with focus on System Identification and Modelling, Nonlinear Control and Observers for drones and the use of Localisation and Mapping for Autonomous systems.

High Order Signal Processing One one hand, theoretical problems related to tensors are addressed: tensor decompositions, uniqueness and identifiability properties of tensor models, numerical algorithms for parameter estimation. On the other hand, Telecommunications, Environment, Radar Imaging or EEG Imaging serve as leading applications.[for more information, click here...]	Nonlinear control and observers for drones Modelling for Autonomous Aerial Vehicles and Nonlinear Control Strategies, Visual Servo Control of Dynamical Systems, Observer design for systems with symmetry [for more information, click here...]
