SIGNAL / IMAGE PROCESSING RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES

Hughes Research Laboratories has an immediate opening for a Research Staff
Member to join a team of scientists in the Computational Intelligence and
Advanced Signal Processing Algorithms Project.  Team members in this
project have developed novel, state-of-the-art neural networks,
time-frequency transforms, and image compression algorithms for use in both
commercial and military applications.

The successful candidate will investigate advanced signal and image
processing techniques for multimedia compression, data fusion, and pattern
recognition applications.  Current work is focused on the application of
wavelets, neural networks, and computer vision techniques for data
compression and pattern recognition applications.  Specific duties will
include theoretical analysis, algorithm design, and software simulation.

Candidates are expected to have a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Applied
Mathematics, or Computer Science.  Strong analytical skills and
demonstrated ability to perform creative research, along with experience in
signal and image processing, image or video compression, or neural networks
are required.  Practical experience with C or C++ is essential.   Good
communications and teamwork skills are keys to success.

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the coastal community of Malibu, the
Research Laboratories provides an ideal environment for you to make the
most of your scientific abilities.  Our organization offers a competitive
salary and benefits package.
