The Signal Processing Group is part of the Institute of Electronics, which belongs to the Faculty of Computer Science, Electronics and Telecommunications at AGH University of Krakow, Poland. Group members perform research into various aspects of digital signal processing (DSP) focusing mainly on speech and audio signal processing for the Internet of Things (IoT), multimedia and communication applications, as well as the processing of biomedical signals and audio-video for virtual and augmented reality. Research into signal processing builds upon an intelligent integration of classical DSP techniques, statistical signal processing and machine learning.
The Signal Processing Group is led by Associate Professor Konrad Kowalczyk and it consists of over a dozen of the members of academic staff and research students at a Ph.D. level. The DSP team collaborates internationally with renown academic partners and nationally with the local high-tech industry, and has successfully completed a number of research and commercial R&D projects. The group offers fundamental and advanced taught courses on signal processing, DSP, machine learning, and programming for embedded and multimedia applications at both undergraduate and graduate levels. The Signal Processing Group regularly offers student jobs in research and R&D projects, as well as provides a breadth of opportunities for thesis work and student internships.
We would like to invite you to the Ph.D. defense of mgr inż. Magdalena Rybicka on March the 31th 2026 which will take place in building B2, Room 4 at 12:00. The Ph.D. thesis title is “Towards discriminative speaker representations for speaker recognition and diarization”. This PhD research has been performed at AGH Univeristy and Johns […]
