Kong-Aik Lee received his B.Eng (1st Class Hons) degree from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia in 1999, and his Ph.D. degree from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in 2006. He iscurrently a Research Fellow with the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R), Agency for Science, Technology and Research(A*STAR), Singapore. He has been actively involved in theresearch on subband adaptive filtering techniques for the past fewyears. He invented the Multiband-structured Subband Adaptive Filter(MSAF), a very fast converging and computationally efficientsubband adaptive filtering algorithm. His current research hasprimarily focused on improved classifier design for speaker andlanguage recognition.
Woon-Seng Gan received his B.Eng (1st Class Hons) and Ph Ddegrees, both in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Strathclyde, UK in 1989 and 1993 respectively. Hejoined the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, as a Lecturer and Senior Lecturer in 1993 and 1998 respectively. In 1999, he was promoted to Associate Professor. He is currently the Deputy Director of the Center for Signal Processing at Nanyang Technological University.His research interests include adaptive signal processing, psycho-acoustical signal processing, audio processing, andreal-time embedded systems. He has published more than 170international refereed journals and conference papers, and has beenawarded four Singapore and US patents. He has previouslyco-authored two technical books on Digital Signal Processors:Architectures, Implementations, and Applications (Prentice Hall, 2005) and Embedded Signal Processing with the Micro Signal Architecture (Wiley-IEEE, 2007).
Dr. Gan has also won the Institute of Engineers Singapore (IES)Prestigious Engineering Achievement Award in 2001 for his work on Audio Beam System. He is currently serving as an Associate Editorfor the EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech and Music Processing, and EURASIP Research Letters in Signal Processing. He is also a Senior Member of IEEE and serves as a committee member in the IEEE Signal Processing Society Education Technical Committee.
Sen M. Kuo received the B.S. degree from National Taiwan Normal University, Taipei, Taiwan, in 1976 and the M.S. and Ph.D.degrees from the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM in 1983and 1985, respectively. He is a Professor and served as thedepartment chair from 2002 to 2008 in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Northern Illinois University, De Kalb, IL. He was with Texas Instruments, Houston, TX in 1993, and with Chung-Ang University, Seoul, Korea in 2008. He is the leading author of fourbooks: Active Noise Control Systems (Wiley, 1996), Real-Time Digital Signal Processing (Wiley, 2001, 2006), and Digital Signal Processors (Prentice Hall, 2005), and aco-author of Embedded Signal Processing with the Micro Signal Architecture (Wiley 2007). He holds seven US patents, and haspublished over 200 technical papers. His research focuses on activenoise and vibration control, real-time DSP applications, adaptiveecho and noise cancellation, digital audio and communicationapplications, and biomedical signal processing. Prof. Kuo receivedthe IEEE first-place transactions (Consumer Electronics) paperaward in 1993, and the faculty-of-year award in 2001 foraccomplishments in research and scholarly areas. He served as anassociate editor for IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech and Language Processing, and serves as a member of the editorial boardsfor EURASIP Research Letters in Signal Processing and Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering.
