Michele Scarpiniti is an Associate Professor at the Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunication (DIET) of the University of Rome “La Sapienza” since 2020. Previously, from March 2008, he was an Assistant Professor at the same Department. He got the “Laurea” degree com laude in Electronic Engineering and the Ph.D. in Information and Communication Engineering, both from the Engineering Faculty of the University of Rome “La Sapienza” in 2005 and 2009 respectively. Michele Scarpiniti’s current research interests are in the field of nonlinear signal processing, circuit and algorithms for audio signal processing, array signal processing and blind source separation. In addition, he works on nonlinear adaptive filtering, with a particular emphasis in nonlinear system identification. Other research interests concerned with the monophonic/stereophonic echo cancellation in adverse environment and in presence of strong nonlinear distortion and with the acoustic source localization. He is also interested in machine learning and neural networks for signal processing. The research activity was taken in the sphere of several strategic National projects. Michele Scarpiniti is a senior member of “Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers” (IEEE), of “Audio Engineering Society” (AES), for which he was a member of the Board of the Italian Section, and of “Società Italiana Reti Neuroniche” (SIREN), for which he is a member of the Steering Committee.Prof. Scarpiniti is in the Editorial board, as an Associate Editor, of the ELsevier DIgital SIgnal Processing, Elsevier Array, and IET Electronics Letters journals. He was also an Academic Editor, of the Wiley/Hindawi journal Complexity. From 2006 he has served regularly as a reviewer for many journals and several international conferences. Since 2012, he is also a member of the Technical Program Committee of International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR) and International Conference on Pattern Recognition Applications and Methods (ICPRAM). Michele Scarpiniti was a co-organizer of several Special Sessions in different international conferences. Moreover, Prof. Scarpiniti was a member of the Local Conference Committee of the following International conferences: 48-th International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology (ICCST 2014); and International Conference on Nonlinear Speech Processing (NOLISP 2015).Specialties: Machine Learning, Adaptive Filtering, Blind Signal Processing, Audio Signal Processing, Array Processing, Blind Signal Separation, Fog Computing.
