Signal and Image Processing (SIP) Lab

The Signal and Image Processing (SIP) Lab at UTD was established in 2002 to conduct research in various aspects of signal and image processing, in particular in the application areas of Digital/Cell-phone Cameras and Medical Imaging. SIP Lab current research projects include:

· Fast passive auto focusing for digital and smart-phone cameras

· Improved auto exposure for digital and smart-phone cameras

· Real-time hand-pair gesture recognition using stereo cameras

· Flash artifact reduction in stereoscopic imaging

· Real-time logo detection and tracking on mobile platforms

· Stochastic Image modeling and its applications to medical images

· Texture analysis of second harmonic generation medical images

· Computationally efficient recursive wavelet packet transform

· Real-time implementation of cochlear implant speech processing pipeline

SIP Lab is equipped with the following hardware implementation platforms: DM350/DM320/DM270 (digital camera platform), OMAP (mobile platform), and C6x-DSP.

The SIP Lab projects have been sponsored or supported by the following organizations:

Texas Instruments, National Instruments, National Science Foundation, UT Southwestern Medical Center, National Institutes of Health, and UTD Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science.
