Signal Processing Cup
The IEEE SP Cup is a competition that provides undergraduate students with the opportunity to form teams and work together to solve a challenging and interesting real-world problem using signal-processing techniques and methods. Three teams will be selected to present their work, and prizes will be awarded at ICASSP 2014. The title of this inaugural competition is "Image restoration/Super-resolution for Single Particle Analysis", proposed by the Bio Imaging and Signal Processing Technical Committee.
