معرفی
Sven Peter Näsholm is a Professor of Array Signal Processing and Acoustic Imaging at the Department of Informatics, University of Oslo, where he has served as manager of the Digital Signal Processing and Image Analysis (DSB) research group since 2021. Promoted from Associate Professor to full Professor in April 2025, he operates within the Section for Machine Learning and maintains an office at Ole-Johan Dahls hus, Gaustadalléen 23 D.
His research centers on array signal processing and acoustic imaging, with deep expertise in beamforming techniques, ultrasound and infrasound applications, wave propagation through complex media, and medical imaging systems. He has made significant contributions to atmospheric infrasound monitoring in the middle atmosphere, as evidenced by popular science features in Geoforskning.no, Titan, and Meteorology Technology International. His work bridges theoretical signal processing with practical implementations in geophysics and medical diagnostics.
Näsholm actively supervises seven PhD candidates across multiple institutions, including Ekaterina Vorobeva and Mari Dahl Eggen (both successfully defended), and ongoing candidates Sander Bøe Thygesen, Håvard Arnestad, Sri Nivas Chandrasekaran, Sufayan Mulani, and Seçkin Polat. He teaches advanced courses such as Array Signal Processing (IN5450), Digital Signal Processing (IN3190), and Statistical Signal Processing (IN5340), while offering Master's thesis projects through the DSB group.
He leads major research initiatives including AIR (Airborne Inversion of Rayleigh waves), Brainsight (ultrasound shear wave elastography), and CIUS (Center for Innovative Ultrasound Solutions), collaborating with NORSAR, NTNU, SINTEF, and the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute. His current projects focus on advancing ultrasound technologies for medical diagnostics and atmospheric monitoring systems.
