John J. Soraghan (S’83–M’84–SM’96) received the B.Eng. (Hons.) and M.Eng.Sc. degrees in electronic engineering from University College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland, and the Ph.D. degree in electronic engineering from the University of Southampton, U.K. After graduating, he worked with the Electricity Supply Board in Ireland and with Westinghouse Electric Corporation in the U.S. In 1986, he joined the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, U.K as a lecturer. He was a Manager of the Scottish Transputer Centre from 1988 to 1991, Manager with the DTI Parallel Signal Processing Centre from 1991 to 1995 and Head of the ICSP from 2005-2007. He became a Professor in Signal Processing in 2003 and held the Texas Instruments Chair in Signal Processing from 2004-2016. He was the Director of the Sensor Signal Processing Research Groups within the Centre for Signal and Image Processing (CeSIP) at Strathclyde. Professor Soraghan was Co-Director of the Neuromorphic Sensor Signal Processing Laboratory within CeSIP that was established in 2017. His main research interests are signal and image processing and machine learning theories, algorithms, with applications to radar, sonar and acoustics, biomedical signal and image processing, video & speech analytics, and condition monitoring. Professor Soraghan has supervised 60 researchers to PhD graduation and has published over 340 technical publications.
