Biography



Pier Luigi Dragotti is currently a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department at Imperial College, London. He received the Laurea Degree (summa cum laude) in Electrical Engineering from the University Federico II, Naples, Italy, in 1997; the Master degree in Communications Systems from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland in 1998; and PhD degree from EPFL, Switzerland, in April 2002 (thesis adviser Prof. M. Vetterli).  In 1996, he was a visiting student at Stanford University, Stanford, CA, and, from July to October 2000, he was a summer researcher in the Mathematics of Communications Department at Bell Labs, Lucent Technologies, Murray Hill, NJ. Before joining Imperial College in November 2002, he was a senior researcher at EPFL working on distributed signal processing for sensor networks for the Swiss National Competence Center in Research on Mobile Information and Communication Systems.  Dr Dragotti is the co-organizer of the following special sessions: 'Image Compression beyond Wavelets' at the Visual Communications and Image Processing conference (VCIP 2003), 'Sensing Reality and Communicating Bits' at the IEEE International Conference of Acoustic, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP 2006), 'Signal/Image Reconstruction from Sparse Measurements' at the IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP 2006) and 'Sparsity and Sampling' at the SPIE Conference on Wavelet Applications in Signal and Image Processing,  Wavelets XII. Dr Dragotti is an associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Image Processing and a member of the IEEE Image, Video and MultiDimensional Signal Processing (IMDSP) Technical Committee.
