| Call for PhD Thesis Submission &
Best PhD Thesis Award |
The European Association for Signal Processing created and maintains a database of PhD manuscripts
at http://theses.eurasip.org
which is one of the world's largest in the area of signal processing.
The database interface also shows download statistics and publishes regularly the 10 top downloaded theses.
Every year a committee of experts nominated by the EURASIP Board of Directors selects up to three theses related to different areas of signal processing to be awarded ‘Best PhD Thesis’ awards.
The selection process is based on the evaluation of the impact of the theses, their subsequent journal and conference publications and related citations received,
and on the review reports of independent reviewers as well as on the download and citation statistics.
In order to select the 2021 best PhD theses, the temporal window of the years 2016 through 2018 is considered. The awards will be presented during the Awards Ceremony at EUSIPCO 2021.
Each award consists of a certificate and of a travelling & accommodation reimbursement of 1K Euros for attending the Awards Ceremony.
If you want to make your PhD thesis available in the EURASIP database, visit the site http://theses.eurasip.org and upload your thesis.
