Gilead
Tadmor
|
Gilead's present and past research activities include basic system theory, distributed parameter systems, discrete event control systems, robust and optimal control and system identification, nonlinear control, dynamic estimation, and reduced order models for complex systems. The development of new modeling, control and observer design methodologies for unsteady fluid flow is presently a central theme in my research. Similar ideas are applied in dynamic methods for bio-medical imaging. Driving applications in previous projects include control and estimation problems involving electric drives, power electronics and power systems. |

Dana
H. Brooks Professor 617-373-3352 brooks@ece.neu.edu |
Dana's research interests focus primarily on biomedical applications of digital signal and image processing. His current projects in the area of electrocardiography include work on the inverse problem of electrocardiography, on quantification of multi-sensor time-varying electrical patterns on the heart and torso surface, on the development of realistic bounds on a large number of measures of these patterns, and on the use of the wavelet transform to study both these multi-sensor patterns as well as single-lead signals. He is also involved in a collaborative, multi-institution project on Diffuse Optical Tomography, associated with the newly-funded NSF Engineering Research Center at Northeastern, the Center for Subsurface Sensing and Imaging Systems (CenSSIS) as well as a collaborative project on fast, dynamic MRI imaging with Profs. Eric Miller and Hanoch Lev-Ari of the CDSP Center, Larry Panych of Brigham and Women's Hospital, and CDSP Ph.D. student W. Scott Hoge. He also has research interests in higher-order spectra, and digital signal processing with chaotic signals and systems. |

Miriam
E. Leeser Professor 617-373-3814 mel@ece.neu.edu |
Miriam's research focuses on mapping image and signal processing applications to reconfigurable hardware. There are two pieces to this research: mapping algorithms to hardware architectures and developing new tools for automatically generating hardware. Our aim is to provide tools and techniques that allow designers to focus on design tradeoffs, and to improve methods for automatically generating designs. In the lab we use a combination of research and commercial tools, as well as the hardware needed to map designs onto field programmable logic. |
