Embedded Systems Group wins prestigious publication award
Congratulations to the Embedded Systems group from the School of Engineering and Architecture who celebrate a significant award for their publication at a major international biomedical and health conference.
A publication by researchers from the group entitled 'An implementation of an AI-assisted sonification algorithm for Neonatal EEG Seizure detection on an edge device', has won the best paper award (third prize) in the prestigious IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI) held in Greece.
The paper is co-authored by Feargal O'Sullivan (who also presented at the conference), Sergi Gomez Quintana, Andriy Temko and Emanuel Popovici. The project is co-funded through the School of Engineering and Architecture, industry support (Qualcomm and Dell) and the SFI Insight Centre.
This paper follows a milestone publication in Nature Scientific reports, and forms part of the high-impact research carried out by the group on a project that focuses on improving health outcomes for newborns.
Dr Emanuel Popovici, director of the Embedded Systems group commented: "The incredible track record of 50+ awards in the Embedded.Systems@UCC group is testimony to the outstanding individual researchers. We are delighted with this award, and well done Feargal for bringing it home!"
