Education:

Ph.D. Iowa State University

Research Interests:

Research interests include applications of neural networks; infrasound signal processing, specifically, classifying infrasonic events using neural networks for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty; biomedical signal processing and biosensors, specifically, development of a non-invasive glucose sensor; adaptive signal processing; digital image processing; and pattern recognition. Other research interests include the development of independent component analysis-based signal separation algorithms for separating speech signals in acoustically hostile environments, and applications of independent component analysis to digital image processing.
