The workshop was held in the Ada Lovelace lecture hall and opened by Director of PhD Studies Mark Vesterbacka, who also hosted the event. The programme consisted of four oral sessions and two poster sessions, where PhD students presented their ongoing research in areas including signal processing, machine learning, networks, optimisation, vehicle systems, quantum communication and medical technology.
A broad range of research topics
The presentations covered a wide variety of research areas, including MIMO-based drone detection, energy-efficient driving for heavy-duty vehicles, neural networks, FPGA design, social networks and mobile EEG in complex audiovisual environments. The poster sessions gave participants the opportunity to discuss their projects in greater depth and establish new connections across research fields.
As in previous editions, the workshop also provided an opportunity for doctoral students to meet and gain insight into research conducted in other divisions within ISY. The day was characterised by a high level of engagement and discussions among participants, supervisors and jury members.
And the winners are...
The workshop concluded with a lecture on research communication followed by the award ceremony for the best presentations. This year's jury consisted of Astrid Lundmark, Emil Hjalmarsson and Torkel Glad.
The award for Best Oral Presentation was presented to Rasmus Uhlin for the presentation "Proximity-aware audio-visual tracking with a Poisson multi-Bernoulli mixture filter".
The award for Best Poster Presentation was presented to "An optical-fibre-integrated processing buffer for packet-switched quantum networks for the poster Daniel Spegel-Lexne".
