Signal Processing in Medicine and Biology (eBook)

?Signal Processing in Medicine and Biology: Innovations in Big Data Processing provides an interdisciplinary look at state-of-the-art innovations in biomedical signal processing, especially as it applies to large data sets and machine learning. Chapters are presented with detailed mathematics and complete implementation specifics so that readers can completely master these techniques. The book presents tutorials and examples of successful applications and will appeal to a wide range of professionals, researchers, and students interested in applications of signal processing, medicine, and biology at the intersection between healthcare, engineering, and computer science.

?Iyad Obeid, Ph.D., is an associate professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Temple University with a secondary appointment in the Department of Bioengineering. His research interests include neural signal processing, biomedical signal processing, and medical instrumentation. His research in these fields has been funded by NIH, NSF, DARPA, and the US Army. Together with Dr. Joseph Picone, he is the co-founder of the Neural Engineering Data Consortium, whose goal is to provide large, well-curated neural signal data to the biomedical research community. In addition to earlier work on brain-machine interfaces, Dr. Obeid's current research has expanded to include non-parametric unsupervised machine learning as well as concussion and injury assessment instrumentation built using commercial off-the-shelf sensors.
