Welcome

Dear Colleagues,

You will find here the technical program of the 16th European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO-2008). This program is the result of an impressive work done by the authors, Area Chairs, Technical Program Committee members and all the reviewers, under the leadership of the Technical Program Co-Chairmen Prof. Pascal Frossard (EPFL) and Dr Andrea Cavallaro (Queen Mary, University of London). I would like to warmly thank them all for their valuable contributions.

EUSIPCO-2008 received 976 papers for regular sessions and 76 papers for special sessions. After a strict review process, 495 papers were accepted for regular sessions and 57 papers for special sessions, which means an acceptance rate of 50.7% for the papers submitted to the regular sessions.

This program is complemented by 6 outstanding tutorials and these tutorials are, for the first time in the history of the EUSIPCO conference, freely accessible for all registered participants.

I hope you will find this program interesting, and wish you a very fruitful conference and an enjoyable stay in Lausanne.

Prof. Jean-Philippe Thiran
General Chairman, EUSIPCO-2008
