Asoke Nandi

Professor Asoke Nandi serves as Professor of Electronic & Computer Engineering at Brunel University of London, where he has been Head of Electronic and Computer Engineering since April 2013. Previously, he held the David Jardine Chair of Signal Processing at the University of Liverpool, where he established and led the Signal Processing and Communications Research Group. His academic journey began with a PhD from the University of Cambridge, followed by positions at prestigious institutions including Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, CERN, Queen Mary University of London, the University of Oxford, Imperial College London, and the University of Strathclyde.

Professor Nandi's research spans theoretical developments in signal processing and machine learning, with applied contributions across multiple domains. His work encompasses wireless communications (including automatic modulation recognition and equalization), biomedical signal processing (breast cancer detection, electrocardiogram extraction, retinal image processing), machine condition monitoring, image forensics, time series predictions, genomic signal processing (gene clustering), brain signal processing (music, EEG, and fMRI data processing), and Big Data analytics. These diverse research interests demonstrate his interdisciplinary approach to information engineering problems.

His recent publications reveal a strong focus on deep learning applications across multiple domains, with emphasis on medical imaging (particularly cancer diagnosis and segmentation), remote sensing change detection, fault diagnosis in mechanical systems, and innovative approaches to image processing. The research shows a clear trajectory toward more sophisticated neural network architectures including attention mechanisms, diffusion models, and multimodal fusion techniques applied to real-world engineering and medical challenges.
