Taulant Koka receives the SEW-Eurodrive Study Award 2022 for his master thesis

His thesis on “Unlabeled Sensing of Multi-Input FRI Signals”, which he worked on during an exchange semester at EPFL under the supervision of Dr. Benjamín Béjar, deals with the reconstruction of multivariate sparse signals from samples without precise knowledge of channel correspondences. Missing correspondences between measurements and their associated channels are found in a variety of relevant applications, such as tracking multiple targets, sensor networks for tracking multiple pedestrians, and whole-brain calcium imaging in freely moving organisms such as larval zebrafish or C. elegans. The work focused on the application in calcium imaging. The SEW-Eurodrive Study Award is awarded annually for outstanding scientific projects and work in the fields of electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and economics. It is endowed with 2,500 euros and funded by the SEW-Eurodrive Foundation.

Jasin Machkour is a founding member of the EURASIP Student Committee and represents the area Theoretical and Methodological Trends in Signal Processing (TMTSP).

to the Paul Scherrer Institute and the Lippmann plates exhibition at Photo Elysée

From 3rd to 4th of May 2023, the RDS Group organized a student excursion to Switzerland in order to visit the Paul Scherrer Institute, as well as the Lippmann plates exhibition at Photo Elysée in Lausanne.

The Robust Data Science Group Research Retreat 2023 took place in Paris. The retreat consisted of in-depth scientific discussions and meetings with multiple collaborating French researchers. As part of the trip, Michael Muma gave a talk entitled “The T-Rex Selector: Fast High-Dimensional Variable Selection with FDR Control” at the Group of Bertrand Thirion who is the principal investigator of the Parietal team (INRIA Saclay-Île-de-France) situated within the Neurospin research center at Saclay.
