معرفی
Pascal Picart is a Professor at Le Mans University, France, and serves as Deputy Director of the Laboratoire d'Acoustique de l'Université du Mans (LAUM UMR CNRS 6613). He is affiliated with the School of Engineering and leads research within the Transducers team, focusing on Optical, Signal and Image Methods for Acoustics. With an extensive publication record including 115-120 journal papers, 27-30 invited talks, over 160 conference proceedings, 7 book chapters, and coordination of 4 books, Picart has established himself as a leading researcher in digital holography and coherent imaging techniques.
His primary research interests center on coherent imaging based on digital holography and its applications to acoustics, mechanics, and fluid mechanics. Picart's work spans digital holography, speckle noise reduction, phase imaging, vibration analysis, and optical metrology. His team develops advanced techniques for full-field measurements, with applications ranging from structural mechanics to biomedical imaging and additive manufacturing process monitoring. Recent work emphasizes deep learning approaches for speckle denoising and phase retrieval in challenging conditions.
Picart's publication portfolio demonstrates consistent innovation in digital holographic techniques, with recent trends showing increased focus on computational imaging, machine learning applications, and industrial process monitoring. His work bridges fundamental optical research with practical applications in materials science, manufacturing, and acoustics. The interdisciplinary nature of his research connects optics, signal processing, mechanics, and computer science.
- Fellow of OPTICA (formerly OSA)
- Member of SPIE, Société Française d'Optique (SFO), European Optical Society (EOS), Club EEA, and IEEE
Picart co-founded a startup and has coordinated multiple research projects. His work at LAUM involves both fundamental research and applied projects, with connections to industrial applications in vibration analysis, non-destructive testing, and manufacturing process control. As Deputy Director of LAUM, he oversees one of France's leading acoustics research laboratories with extensive experimental facilities including specialized rooms for acoustic and vibration measurements, opto-acoustic experimentation platforms, and optical metrology equipment.
